Raba - Defend your code RSS 2.0
# Saturday, December 15, 2007

After one year of implementing Scrum at my place, I was asked to give a lecture to a new Team-Leaders, This Wednesday I will have my first Scrum Session, I spent a lot of time for the last few weeks to create a cool Presentation, I've also spent some time reading lots of data (some of them even more than once) about the Agile manifesto and its different methodologies.

I will update later on about the first session (next week). But to my readers I will give one great tip, two books bonus for a better start for your agile development:

Agile Software Development - Alistair CockBurn

This two books are "better together" - While reading them both you will understand:

  1. Why to choose Agile (Or: The Values of the Agile manifesto)
  2. Better Understanding for the problems within methodologies (Not only the non-Scrum ones)
  3. What is agile at all - I've found many people not understanding the meaning of being Agile.
  4. What is the difference between the methodologies (Scrum, XP, Crystal etc.)
  5. Implementation (especially Scrum at Ken Schwaber's book)
  6. and many samples from the experienced writers.

And here are some bonus links to my learning phase for the last year (stories from the last year as a Scrum-Master):

  1. Scrum methodology - the scrum master
  2. Trying to manage the team-pace better (or- Entering to Scrum For TeamSystem Template)
  3. Improve your scrum Environment
  4. Scrum for Team system feature requests

And here is one article I've found while start writing (back in the past while I didn't even know about being Agile)

  1. Acceptance Tests

I hope you will enjoy those books (and links).
