Présentation de l'éditeur :
Unblock! A Guide to the New Continuous Agile contains ideas and tactics that winning software teams are using now to release faster, innovate more, reduce stress, and fly past their competitors. NOTE: THIS IS A BETA VERSION OF THE BOOK. A revised version with more material will be available in the first quarter of 2014. Andy Singleton, CEO and founder of Assembla, describes how companies like Google leverage cloud computing and continuous delivery methods to release features and fixes many times a day. The book examines: - Why companies need to release more frequently. - The "Beyond Scrum Roadmap": From roadmapping and prototyping, to Scrum and Scrumban, to Kanban and distributed teams. - Continuous Agile: Putting together Kanban planning, code contribution workflows, automated testing and continuous release. - How your role will change if you do product management, programming, testing or management. - How to manage distributed teams and scale up to large projects. Unblock! is full of exciting new ideas and techniques: Story owners (continuous project management), "feature switches" and "unveils" (releasing new features to one audience at a time), test layering (adding testing where it is most efficient), the Continuous Delivery Dial (mixing flow and batch processes), "Things to skip" (activities that kill team productivity), centralized and decentralized continuous delivery (combining the simplicity of centralized code management with the scalability of distributed processes). Unblock! A Guide to the New Continuous Agile is for software developers and development leaders want both theoretical and practical advice on how to accelerate and scale software development.
