The Role of Feedback in an Agile Application Lifecycle

[Peter Bateman]

Hi All:

   An invitation.

   I believe that PowerHouse's 'Application Design Guidelines' is an early 
attempt at
   the Agile Methodology. As such PowerHouse developers can easily see the 
advantages of
   Agile development.

Regards,
Peter

>About this Event:
>
>
>
>		Recent CM Crossroads research shows that while over
>		85% of organizations are moving towards deploying agile methods and tools
>		for their development teams, less than 12% have two or more projects
>		underway using agile methods. This suggests that many organizations 
>simply
>		do not know where to start.

>
>
>		Feedback to your customers on the progress of agreed upon features during
>		the iteration process is an essential component of an agile software
>		development environment, especially if you are able to take immediate
>		action. To do this, you must be able to easily provide high level 
>feedback
>		on the status of your code line in terms of its content ?at any time
>		during the development process. If you must sift through detailed low
>		level details to confirm the status of a feature and not change course
>		quickly, then your agile development processes is no longer working for
>		you. The only way to take advance of effective feedback is with an
>		actionable SCM environment that is tightly integrated into your build and
>		test processes in place.

>		In this 60 minute Webcast presentation, noted author and CM Journal
>		Columnist Steve Berczuk will be joined by John Carrillo, Senior Director
>		of Strategic Solutions for Telelogic to discuss agile in the real world.
>		During this broadcast attendees will learn about the role of build, test,
>		and related SCM practices in a software development environment, and how
>		effective build and SCM practices can help improve the feedback process
>		between your customers, development teams, Quality teams, and other
>		stakeholders such as compliance auditors.
