Synopsis

Extreme Programming (XP) has been the subject of heated debate since its arrival on the programming scene in 1998-understandably so, as it contradicts many traditional software development beliefs. We've heard success stories about sweeping changes made to organizations as a result of XP We've read books about how this approach can work for our teams. However, are there times when XP isn't appropriate ? There are certainly instances when making the leap to XP could potentially jeopardize a whole project. What's missing from ail of this rhetoric ? Witness Pete McBreen, software craftsman, examine the issue from both sides. After reading this thought-provoking book, software developers can make informed decisions about Extreme Programming, and whether it is suitable for their organization. Readers will also be able to determine whether Extreme Programming is inappropriate for a particular project. The author challenges you to look past the hype and start asking the hard questions about how software is built. Discover for yourself.
