Agile - Story Driven Approch

idea posted by samarinder singh thind Quality Assurance Analyst, Thomson Reuters

Hi All,

Sharing my experience of what i have learned so far from Agile software development process.

 

Its all about three words Iteration,Communication and adeptive.Its about challenges the whole team to stay continuously synchronized within very short Iteration cycles.Breaking requirements into small small stories. The word story is very important here which drives the agile process.

Story Driven approach

 

 The important thing is the story
 The story is about a complete behavior
 Stories are independent
 Stories may need data
– Initial values,Input mechanism,Edit mechanism
 Since the data is the story’s – this is where all the above
belongs

 

What we keep track of

 Value Stories


 Management Stories

– Enable the Value Stories
– Have a system POV


 Data


– Needs to be tracked individually
– All system aspects must be remembered

A common problem

 Stories are too big

 

Unfolding Stories -It works

 Stories should not take long to complete

 Breaking the up along three dimensions
– Scenarios
– Architecture
– Detail


 They are still stories
– Customer facing

– 1 or 2 days
– Sometime can’t fit in an iteration
 No clear progress indication
– Track % complete
– Track tasks done
 New skill required
– provide the business value
– what the customer is really after
– Single behavior

You can shoot me a mail know more about how to go Test driven development and story writing.

Communication with the Stakeholders

idea posted by Radhakrishna Marar Business Analyst, Oracle

According to me Communication plays an important role in the implementation of agile methodologies in a software development project. Effective communication is a must for agile methodologies to succeed. Both processes and organization need to have in place a vehicle for communication. One of the important requirements for agility is fast and effective communication between developers, operations, support, customers, management, and business areas.

Team Composition

idea posted by Brajesh Sharma Business Analyst, Mentor Graphics

I feel Team composition is also an important factor responsible for the success of agile methodologies. The number of experts in a team is important. What is important is the team composition with experts with actually building systems, rather than experience with agile methodologies.......
