I like to say that I may have invented story points, and if I did, I’m sorry now. Let’s explore my current thinking on story points. At least one of us is interested in what I think. Stories, of course, are an XP idea, not a Scrum idea. Somehow, Scrum practitioners have adopted the idea. Even though the official Scrum Guide refers to backlog items, having backlog items be User Stories is a common
Big Business “Agile”1 has become big business. Led, no doubt, by the Scrum Alliance’s successful Certified ScrumMaster offering, we now see hundreds, perhaps thousands of so-called “Agile” coaches and trainers, and many competing frameworks and methods. We see “Agile” leadership training, “Agile” project management offerings, and on and on. Good for the enterprise Now, many, perhaps most of these
Let’s talk about “Dark Scrum”. Too often, at least in software, Scrum seems to oppress people. Too often, Scrum does not deliver as rapidly, as reliably, as steadily as it should. As a result, everyone suffers. Most often, the developers suffer more than anyone.1 The theme behind a lot of my thinking lately is this: Kent Beck, my original “Agile” mentor, once said that he invented Extreme Programm
There’s a lot of interesting talk and thinking, going on under the heading of #NoEstimates. Woody Zuill and Neil Killick are two of the most vocal proponents. The basic idea, as I understand it, is that it is possible to do small chunks of work incrementally, leading as rapidly as possible to a desired shippable product, and that when you do that there is no need to do much of anything in the way
There has recently been a lot of noise on the lists, and questions at conferences, about putting refactoring "stories" on the backlog. Even if "technical debt" has grown up, this is invariably an inferior idea. Here's why: When our project begins, the code is clean. The field is well-mowed, life is good, the world's our oyster. Everything is going to be just fine. We can build features smoothly an
I recently took the SAFe SPC training, with instructors Jennifer Fawcett and Al Shalloway. My bottom line assessment is that it will be a marketing success, organizations trying it will see improvement, and some will see great improvement. And I don't like it. SAFe isn't really Agile in its heart. It does have many good elements, which I'll talk about here. And I still don't like it. I'll talk abo
At the Simple Design and Testing conference, Dan Mead bravely agreed to implement the infamous Bowling Game exercise, TDD style, in Haskell. It was fun and interesting. Here I present some discussion, his program, and a Java program in a similar style. "New Paradigms" Chet and I went to the Simple Design and Testing conference in West Chester, PA. Since his wife works at DaimlerChrysler, Chet was
Should we ease into Agile, or jump in? How fond of being eaten by bears are you? We should be trying to be successful. We agree, I hope, that our chances of success depend in large part on what we do. Our chances depend on our practices. How quickly–or how slowly–should we adopt practices? If we look at the map of the continent of all practices, Agile is a region somewhere in the middle, where all
