5 Things to Read

• Anti-patterns - Christian Findlay

  • Christian questions the definition of anti-patterns, raising the issue of technical demonization of these practices (and deification of the patterns). Every problem is contextual and its solution as well - therefore, applying these solution to every similar situation can be problematic.

• Divide & conquer à la BDD: story, rule, scenario - Gáspár

  • Gáspár shares another great and practical guide in how to extract BDD scenarios from a simple User Story title, by creating Rules and extracting Examples from them.

• Scrum is fragile, not Agile - Dennis Weyland

  • I don’t agree completely with the view Dennis share here, but he raises important questions regarding how Scrum can be misused and go into contradiction to the Agile Manifesto.

• Building a team path for quality - Bruce

  • Undeveloped Bruce shares a great story of how his team has driven the development of their project through retrospective, collective thinking, and user telemetry data.

• Raw Graph

  • From Bruce’s post, I came to discover Raw Graph. AWESOME TOOL!
