2009 Session: eXtreme Programming in Practice

Wednesday, 11:20 - 12:10
Track: Agile Ways

Extreme programming sounds a little too "ESPN2" for most managers, but there is a lot of sound engineering behind its principles. I talk about the parts of XP that are absolutely vital and the ones that you can introduce a little more slowly (pair programming, only a 40 hour work week). I also talk about political battles with managers, other departments, and barriers that pop up anytime you try to introduce change in a large enterprise.

Prerequisites

Discussion is encouraged (required) in this session.

Expectations

This session talks about how to do XP in the real world.
