Discipline, Discipline and some more discipline

Thank you for your attention!

Customer Tests

We had some, not enough.

Mostly examples, on ho to use

Were not used integrally in or process

Small Releases

once per quarter

New functionality

Each sprint

bug-fixes,

minor improvement

Collective Ownership

Sustainable Pace

Anyone could change anything,

When bugs were detected they were just fixed on the spot

We didn't work hard (enough?)

We did work overtime

on need, for short periods of time

Refactoring

Constant refactoring

during TDD cycle

preperation for new feature

Each success gave us more courage

to do more

Mistakes were made

Test Driven Development

eXtreme

Programming

No dedictaed QA

All new features were covered by automated tests

Test were were written first

Level of testing were mixed

Simple Design

We did our best

Simplicitly was valued

No formal design process

Some Context

The company

Single Team (3-8)

Developing Testing tools

.NET/C#

My Role

Dev Manager

Join very early

Knew agile - first experience

All code work was done in pairs

Except:

Support (bug investigation)

Research (spikes)

Pair Programming

Full integration cycle each commit

No Branching

Developers were committing several times per day

Continuous Integration

No formal coding standart

Most code was similar

Coding Standard

Metaphor

We were one team

No dedicated QA

Everyone was involved

We were domain experts

Whole Team

Retrospect

Used scrum like planning

Sprints

backlog, tasks

Skipped Release plans

Business was changing

rapidly

What went good

Planning Game

To try next time

need to improve

  • Establish a proper release cycle
  • Better backlog
  • Release plan
  • Measure velocity

  • Have clear distinction between testing levels

  • Bring formal QA knowledge

  • Have the real PO work with the team

  • More diverse team

  • Eliminate fear from the code early on
  • We struggled with support

  • We still had trivial critical problems escaping

  • We lacked long term planning
