Testing in agile
Agile testing focuses on repeatable quality and efficiency through iterative and incremental development. Testers test each small increment of coding as soon as it is finished, ensuring programmers never get ahead of testers. True agile teams deliver working software frequently in short iterations rather than long delays, with testing done continuously throughout development rather than in separate phases at the end.

Role of Quality Assurance specialist on Agile projectSvetlana Mukhina ICP, -ATF, -BVA, - ACC, PSM I, CSPO
This document discusses the role of a quality assurance specialist on an agile project. It begins by providing background on why agile methods have become popular, noting that agile values flexibility and collaboration over rigid processes and documentation. It then discusses key agile principles, practices, and frameworks. The document emphasizes that being agile is more important than just knowing agile practices. It also outlines the responsibilities of a quality assurance specialist on a cross-functional agile team, including automation testing, collaboration, and coaching. Finally, it provides recommendations for developing agile mindsets and continuing education in areas like testing and facilitation.Артем Биковець "Why Scrum is so often "Failed" and criticised" Lviv Project M...
Scrum is often criticized as "failed" due to typical barriers such as a project mindset instead of a product mindset, isolated teams instead of interconnected networks, and rushing into agile practices without establishing software craftsmanship. The document outlines seven common barriers to successful scrum implementation and provides solutions such as adopting a product mindset, establishing self-managing cross-functional teams, emphasizing software craftsmanship principles, replacing heroism with collaborative problem solving, taking an empirical view instead of a certainty mindset, practicing professional scrum over mechanical scrum processes, and scaling the product rather than scrum practices.
Path to grow scrum teams by Vyacheslav Moskalenko
Youtube: https://youtu.be/uENyvD-nUkE
Some time ago I was hired as a Scrum Master to lead a cross-functional Scrum Team. We had to deliver releasable increment of the system every two weeks, which was a huge challenge for everyone in the team as no one had experience with Scrum before.
I felt that I was leading an elite Special Forces unit which is able to achieve almost any target. In such a team, there was no need to tell people how to do things. On the other hand there was a huge need to guide them through the social challenges and conflicts in communication, given their lack of motivation to interact.
I started to search information and good models of how to lead self-organized and cross-functional teams. I found many outstanding books with tips and tricks, which I use to this day when I have to deal with natural instability in Scrum Teams. On the webinar, I am going to share some techniques and models that can help you keep growing the productivity and performance of the Scrum Team.

Is Scrum the Best Choice for you?
This document discusses whether Scrum is the best choice for a company called YOYO. It introduces Scrum and its roles, artifacts, and events. For YOYO, the author suggests using Kanban instead of strictly following Scrum, as Kanban allows for transparency and continuous process improvement through inspection and adaptation, which aligns with Scrum theory. The author's overall suggestion is to think about your own context and continuously improve, and that Scrum may not always be the best choice.
Mindset: the biggest barrier to agility
Presentation from Optional Conference (Budapest).

A Startup Journey: Ad-hoc to Agile to Kanban
This document describes a startup's journey from using ad-hoc processes to agile methods like Scrum and Extreme Programming, and then to incorporating kanban principles. In the first phase, adopting agile practices helped deliver software incrementally but feedback was lacking. In the second phase, kanban helped address issues like meaningless velocity measures, broken sprint planning, and decoupling work from releases by focusing on limiting work-in-progress and continuous flow. The new approach emphasizes self-organization, empowered teams, eliminating waste, and taking a holistic view.

CTO Universe Leadership Series: More Effective Agile Leadership
The document discusses leading agile work in organizations. It notes that while agile development promises benefits, many implementations face challenges due to a lack of clear leadership vision. The key is for leaders to define a clear vision for how agile practices will help achieve business goals, rather than seeing agile as a goal in itself. Leaders must also tighten feedback loops, build skills, focus on quality, and develop a growth mindset with continuous learning and adaptation. Overall success depends on leaders taking responsibility for the effectiveness of agile in their organization.

Dublin North Agile - 4th September 2018 - "Blending Agile Approaches" - Paddy...
Agile approached are about dealing with complex environments, one small step at a time. Agile coaches and scrum masters need to be open to learning themselves if they are to influence the 'mushy stuff' of culture and values in teams and organisations. By internalising an approach to learning, openness, experimentation, scrum masters and agile coaches can help create the kind of organisational communities that we want to work in ourselves.
Agile Outside Software: Does Agile work outside of sofware? #AOSW
- Agile practices originated from lean manufacturing and were adapted for software development, becoming known as Agile software development. Some practices like stand-up meetings, retrospectives, and work-in-progress limits have been adopted outside of software as well.
- Case studies show that elements of Agile have been successfully applied in various non-software domains like legal teams, education, marketing, and strategy development. However, not all Agile practices directly translate and new practices may need to be developed for different fields.
- While there are still relatively few case studies of Agile outside of software, the principles of Agile can work for other domains if adapted appropriately for the context. Organizations should consider which Agile practices

You Cant Be Agile If Your Code Sucks (with 9 Tips For Dev Teams)
Our industry has a problem: We are not lacking software methodologies, programming languages, tools or frameworks but we need great software engineers.
Great software engineering teams build quality-in and deliver great software on a regular basis. The technical excellence of those engineers will help you escape the "Waterfall sandwich" and make your organization a little more agile, from the inception of an idea till they go live.
I will talk about my experiences from the last 15 years, including small software delivery teams until big financial institutions.
* Why would a company like to be "agile"?
* How can a company achieve that?
* How can you achieve Technical Excellence in your software teams?
* What developer skills are more important than languages, methods or frameworks?

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
