Turning Up the Magic in PI Planning
Presentation by Em Campbell-Pretty & Adrienne Wilson at the Global SAFe Summit 2021
Mob Programming thought leader, Woody Zuill, suggests that instead of always focusing on solving problems, we also take the time to notice the things that are going well and amplify them, thereby "turning up the good". When it comes to SAFe Dean Leffingwell perhaps said it best: "There is no magic in SAFe . . . except maybe for PI Planning." I suspect most of you agree that PI Planning is the magic in SAFe. There is nothing quite like the energy created by bringing a group of 100+ people together to build a collaborative plan over a couple of days every 10 to 12 weeks. So what would it mean to "turn up the good in PI Planning"? If we focused on what is good and what we want more of, would we get more magic?! For Em and Adrienne, the answer is a resounding "Yes!" In this session, they will take the "The Facilitator’s Guide to PI Planning" and illustrate how turning up the good can bring your PI Planning magic to the next level.

Async Code Reviews Are Killing Your Company’s Throughput - Dragan Stepanović

Abstract:
"Never had a PR over 300 LoC that didn't look good to me".
We've all been there. The PR is so big you don't even bother commenting. It's already too late to build the quality in. You make a sad face, comment "LGTM", and click approve.
That's still the case in lots of teams but feels like after a long time the industry, on average, learned the value of the Small Batches idea from Lean applied to PRs. And that's a good thing; it's a step in the right direction.
We do a bit of coding, raise a PR and then ask for feedback. People are more likely to engage on smaller PRs. It takes them less time to review it, and they have a feeling that they can still course-correct if something goes astray. PRs go sooner out of the door, and we feel productive as a team.
But, here's the surprise.
What if I told you that teams doing small PRs (with async code reviews) actually have way lower throughput than teams doing big PRs.
"Wait, what?!"
Yes.
I got this surprising systemic insight from analyzing PRs across a bunch of very active repositories and I'll present you with the results of the study.
On the bigger PRs side of the spectrum, we tend to lose quality, while on the smaller PRs end of the spectrum we lose throughput. We're forced to make a trade-off between speed and quality.
But! There's a parallel universe of ways of working where you get to have your cake and eat it too. Where you can have both throughput and quality.
That universe is called co-creation patterns (Pair and Mob programming).
Join me on a journey where I'll show you data invalidating the assumption that two or more people sitting at the same computer will hurt our throughput and why the opposite is actually the case.

As a developer, most of the time, you are being focused on solving concrete problems. This process get’s all your attention on implementation details to make it just work.
If time persists you might spend some time on writing tests for your code, but not going far into details on all the edge cases. It is very hard to verify your own creation in all possible ways. Stepping out of comfort zone and think like a consumer is what test engineers are good at, thinking from the end.
During this session I’m going to share my daily tricks on how to help developers writing better tests which leads to less bugs and more testable architecture.

Exploring your unit tests
As a developer, most of the time, you are being focused on solving concrete problems. This process get’s all your attention on implementation details to make it just work.
If time persists you might spend some time on writing tests for your code, but not going far into details on all the edge cases. It is very hard to verify your own creation in all possible ways. Stepping out of comfort zone and think like a consumer is what test engineers are good at, thinking from the end.
During this session I’m going to share my daily tricks on how to help developers writing better tests which leads to less bugs and more testable architecture.
What does it mean to be a test engineer?
Test engineering is hard, even harder than software development. Being test engineer puts you in a wider context, with no clear boundaries. You have to find those by yourself. This requires courage. Courage to take action, courage to make mistakes. As a test engineer, you do mistakes every day. You do them so often that sometimes you feel you can predict the future. Scientific explanation to this phenomena is patterns recognition. It is an ability of our brain to match the information from a stimulus with information retrieved from memory. Defect prevention is hard. Together with technical skills one have to develop high social awareness. Working on safety nets never was so important, different types of checks on different levels to make sure software is reliable and serves its purpose to the variety of everyday use-cases. We know that life is so complex and sometimes complicated which makes it impossible to predict all possible outcomes and scenarios. But striving for excellence never was so important as nowadays in such an open, transparent and competitive environment.
Goal of my talk will be to show you my everyday job as a test engineer. Not only how to look for defects, but how to prevent them from happening. Not only how to automate tests(noun), but how to build safety nets to minimize end-user impact. Not only how to inform testing status but how to influence quality on company level.
Applying testing mindset to software development
Software Development is a creative activity that requires focus. During coding session you as a programmer tends to make so many decision that sometimes force you to neglect 'unimportant details' that might sounds like specific use cases, unclear statements or somethings that won't gonna happen. In most cases the system even so complex that is not that easy to step out and see the whole picture, even from user's point of view. Historically software developers used to trust other people called testers to verify those 'details' from user's perspective before deploying into production. In order to have proper alignment inside the team dedicated 'QA step' added to the process. That obvious solution have some quick-wins with outcome of found bugs before releasing the software. But there are some tradeoffs, such as: slower delivery cycle, extra test documentation and GUI automated tests that are not that easy to maintain. During my talk I would like to share some insight and lessons we learned @ Spotify that helps us improving team's development productivity without losing quality of the product. Hopefully that will help your team as well or at least show one of the directions you might want to follow.

Test coaching your agile team
Testing is probably the most misunderstood concept in software engineering. Many still believe that testing is simply a verification of actual and expected results in pre-defined set of test scenarios. I wish to know earlier how wrong this statement is.
Conversations about testing can be seen wide, ambiguous, and hard to facilitate. But when done properly show prominent results.
You start from quality. Addressing questions like. What does quality mean for us? Who owns it? Who is responsible for quality improvements? There is no single answer to every team. Each has to come up with their own definition, which works in their particular situation.
Testing is not a measure for quality, but rather a set of activities and preparations to increase a level of confidence before releasing. You cannot simply state that after verifying 1000 test scenarios the whole product behaves as expected.
During this presentation I will share key findings which I think are the most important ones to get almost any engineering team on the right track towards improving productivity and released product quality. There is no single rule to rule them all, but experience-based patterns.

Continuous Delivery as you want it
Continuous delivery makes an agenda for many engineering teams. When there are not that many unknowns in the web world, the embedded software domain is worth exploring. With such diversity of different partner integrations(speakers, consoles, tv’s, cars, etc) Spotify is not an exception. We set ourselves on a journey to reach a state when releases of Spotify’s eSDK is rather a routine and doesn't require anything more than a push of a button. The end goal is clear and sounds easy but challenges are all over the place and every single one needs to be addressed individually. This talk is about how we managed to setup releases of Spotify’s embedded SDK on a predictable schedule and keep improving towards being able releasing on-demand going forward. Our challenges and solutions. What worked, what did not. Pain, tears, joy, and smiles.
Hermetic environment for your functional tests
What are the most common problems with testing environments?
- You are not the only one who is using it.
- Test failures are not repeatable.
- Test data can be easily messed up due to tests overlap.
Those problems are introducing flakiness in your tests, increase frustration level and decrease confidence in quality of a product you are building. Forcing your development team to have a testing queue increases delivery time dramatically. Creating zillions of environments does not sound as cheapest solution either.
At Spotify we experimented with different approaches on how testing environments can be configured: from shared environment to mocks, stubs and hermetic servers. During my presentation I will share the lessons we learned, what worked, what not and what is the direction we are pursuing in order to stabilise our testing suites.
Quality Built In @ Spotify
Most of the people think that quality in software development is limited to manual testing on the latest stage before releasing a product. That might be true 20 years ago in the industrial era. But current world is much more dynamic than before. Time to market became the most crucial metric nowadays. Releasing code to production need to be done faster and faster. How to maintain quality on a sufficient level in this fast paced environment? How to find a time to work on quality improvements? Those are two main questions I want to answer during this talk. Do not expect a silver bullet or even receipt to success. But definitely expect a lot of information about continuous delivery/deployment/improvements with a case studies and lessons we learned at Spotify.

Working Software Over Comprehensive Documentation
Не один десяток раз каждый из нас видео этот пункт Agile манифеста. Кто на официальном сайте Agile Manifesto, кто в книгах или статьях, кто на тренингах или конференциях. Звучит правильно очевидно и просто, но на практике возникают некие сложности с его реализацией. Как определить какие документы писать нужно, а какие не стоит? Как поддерживать документы с наименьшими усилиями? От каких документов нужно отказаться или заменить на более простые решения? Что стоит документировать тестировщику, разработчику, бизнес-аналитику в Agile проектах, для того чтобы презентовать результаты своей работы. На все эти вопросы я постараюсь ответить в своем докладе, закрепляя примерами которые вы сможете попытаться применить на своих проектах.
«Самоорганизуй» себя, пока не «самоорганизовали» тебя
«Возможно ли управлять временем? Спорный вопрос. Время идет и мы ничего не можем поделать. Но в наших силах научиться управлять собой, своими привычками, идеями. При этом, очень важно, чтобы мы управляли своими собственными идеями, а не теми которые кто-то придумал за нас. Учиться самоорганизации можно по-разному и каждый находит свой индивидуальный путь обучения. На докладе я расскажу о своем пути развития Self Management System(SMS), о тех практиках которые применял и продолжаю применять ежедневно».
Как не нужно писать Gherkin сценарии
“Очень часто, внедряя Behavior Driven Development на проекте, думаешь только о быстрых выгодах и о краткосрочной перспективе. На первый взгляд нету ничего сложного в том, чтобы написать приемочный сценарий в стиле Given When Then, простым языком и дальше связывать эти конструкции с языком программирования. Но как показывает практика у многих возникают сложности с составлением непосредственного сценария. Если написать сценарий не правильно, это может повлиять на весь процесс разработки как приемочных тестов, так и на логику работы самого приложения. В докладе я расскажу о том с какими проблемами сталкивается каждый проект, внедряя практику Acceptance Test Driven Development используя Gherkin синтаксис для написания приемочных тестов. На примерах мы рассмотрим частые ошибки при написании приемочных сценариев и разберем основные правила, которые нужно использовать для того, чтобы Acceptance Test-ы помогали каждому члену команды. Доклад будет интересен как тестировщикам, так бизнес аналитикам и разработчикам.”.
iOS and Android Mobile Test Automation
Мир мобильных телефонов очень сильно изменил нашу жизнь. В наше время невозможно представить современного человека, без этого чудо устройства. На рынке появляется все больше устройств и приложений. И чтобы удобнее пользоваться этими приложениями пользователи выбирают “умные” телефоны, или как их еще принято называть смартфоны. В своем докладе я хочу поделиться своим опытом автоматизации приложений под Android и iOS. Я расскажу о том, какие инструменты автоматизации я использовал. Поговорим о недостатках этих инструментов и какие из них стоит использовать у себя на проекте.
10 правил Agile тестировщика
Тема тестирования в Agile очень большая. Ведь теперь за качество отвечает не отдельный QA департамент, а вся команда разработки. Но не стоит забывать, что на тестировщика ложится намного больше обязанностей и требуется набор новых навыков и умений. Уже немало докладов было на эту тему. Я не хочу повторять предыдущих спикеров, а лишь подведу итог своей работы тестировщиком в Agile командах в простых 10 правилах.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.
Why React Native as a Strategic Advantage for Startup Innovation.pdf
Do you know that React Native is being increasingly adopted by startups as well as big companies in the mobile app development industry? Big names like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have already integrated this robust open-source framework.
In fact, according to a report by Statista, the number of React Native developers has been steadily increasing over the years, reaching an estimated 1.9 million by the end of 2024. This means that the demand for this framework in the job market has been growing making it a valuable skill.
But what makes React Native so popular for mobile application development? It offers excellent cross-platform capabilities among other benefits. This way, with React Native, developers can write code once and run it on both iOS and Android devices thus saving time and resources leading to shorter development cycles hence faster time-to-market for your app.
Let’s take the example of a startup, which wanted to release their app on both iOS and Android at once. Through the use of React Native they managed to create an app and bring it into the market within a very short period. This helped them gain an advantage over their competitors because they had access to a large user base who were able to generate revenue quickly for them.
How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good Practices
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

Enhancing Research Orchestration Capabilities at ORNL.pdf
Cross-facility research orchestration comes with ever-changing constraints regarding the availability and suitability of various compute and data resources. In short, a flexible data and processing fabric is needed to enable the dynamic redirection of data and compute tasks throughout the lifecycle of an experiment. In this talk, we illustrate how we easily leveraged Globus services to instrument the ACE research testbed at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility with flexible data and task orchestration capabilities.
Globus Compute wth IRI Workflows - GlobusWorld 2024
As part of the DOE Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, NERSC at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and ALCF at Argonne National Lab are working closely with General Atomics on accelerating the computing requirements of the DIII-D experiment. As part of the work the team is investigating ways to speedup the time to solution for many different parts of the DIII-D workflow including how they run jobs on HPC systems. One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSage
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
