Update: 2024-06-24
Description
Join hosts Brad Nelson and Drew Podwal on The Agile For Agilists Podcast as they are joined by James Grenning, one of the original authors of the Agile Manifesto and one of the first Agile coaches. In this compelling episode, James delves deep into a critical yet often overlooked aspect of Agile: technical excellence.
James discusses the essential role of technical practices in Agile, emphasizing how neglecting this component can undermine the effectiveness of Agile altogether. Drawing from his extensive experience, James explores the principles of eXtreme Programming (XP) and Test-Driven Development (TDD), sharing invaluable insights and practical advice.
Tune in to learn how even the most inexperienced developers can produce high quality software in less time with the right approach uncovered years ago by the likes of Kent Beck, Ward Cunningham, Ron Jeffries, and Martin Fowler. Leveraging a test-driven approach and working in small increments can elevate even the worst developers and save the world from debug-later programming.
Don’t miss this enlightening conversation with James Grenning where he shares his account of things like the first eXtreme Programming immersion and the first Scrum class, while demystifying the magic of Agile Software Development.
