4 1. The Manifesto of the Agile Alliance We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value: Individuals and interactions over processes and tools Working software over comprehensive documentation Customer collaboration over contract negotiation Responding to change over following a plan That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.

5 Individuals and interactions People are most important parameter deciding on success Average programmers cooperating with each other, are better the programmers geniuses which cannot collaborate The team is more important than tools. First create the team, and them make them create the environment

6 Working software The team should create and keep the short document describing the working software. Not more than 20 pages and it should concern only the most important issues. Transfer of knowledge to the new team members should be based on hard-working not just read that documents Do not work on documents, unless you need them at the moment Source code should be the best documentations

7 Customer collaboration Creating the software is not selling the product in the market Forget about delivery to customer final and working system after some time Meet with the customer regularly and possibly often. Show him the software, the problems, ask the questions

8 Responding to changes Creating the schedule remember to make it flexible Remember that requirements changes (unfortunately) You cannot precisely estimate the time of all activities Create the detailed schedules for the coming week, and general one for the following 3 months and overview of what we would like to get at the end of the project

9 2. Extreme Programming

10 XP practices All the team Client is the team member and work with the team User stories The part of requirements written as the part of discussion. Include the priority, costs. Team implements the user stories

11 XP practices Small releases Client should receive working release each two weeks. Iteration plan plan for the next 2 weeks Release plan plan for the next 3 months Acceptance tests Check if implemented functionality fulfill the user story (tools, script languages)

12 XP practices Pair Programming Two programmers are working together at one workstation. Only one member of such pair is responsible for coding The second one is watching, looking for bugs and has wider view.

13 XP practices Test Driven Development First test, then code Same speed It is a marathon not a sprint The team cannot work after hours Open workspace Team should work together, discuss and continously exchange the thoughs

14 XP practices Planning game Create the user stories, estimate costs, prioritize Collective Code ownership No programmer is personally resposnible for any piece of code, Programming pair can download any piece software and work on it Continuous integration Often builds (a few during a day)

15 XP practices Simple project Search for the simplest solutions Once and only once Refactoring Eliminating small bugs, mess, smells

16 Agile planning User stories points Splitting, merging and Velocity Priority Release planning Iteration planning Acceptance tests and Done meaning Task planning Measurement and management

17 Task Make 3-4 persons teams Set one person as a customer Discuss the project Video rental company Decide on user stories, think about points priority Based on imagined velocity, plan next iteration choose the user stories, plan and divide the tasks.

18 3. Test Driven Development

19 Test Driven Development 1. DO NOT CODE unless you create unit tests 2. Do not write unit tests more than for checking code correctness 3. Do not write more code than needed to pass existing tests

20 TDD Example Bank Account Deposit(float amount) Withdraw(float amount) TransferFunds(Account dest, float amount)

21 4. Principles behind the Agile Manifesto

22 Principles behind the Agile Manifesto Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the customer's competitive advantage. Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale.

23 Principles behind the Agile Manifesto Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project. Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done. The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation

24 Principles behind the Agile Manifesto Working software is the primary measure of progress. Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely. Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility. Simplicity - the art of maximizing the amount of work not done - is essential

25 Principles behind the Agile Manifesto The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams. At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
