Development and testing in Agile and Scrum Team

• You will learn that today's software development is not just about programming or testing itself, but about the effectiveness of the use of concepts and tools of modern agile development. Master the different techniques of product design, development, and testing. We will discuss for example system architecture design, when and how to automate testing, how long to maintain and refactor applications.
• You will practically lean techniques on various code katas on your own machines in you favourite language. You will get deeper understanding of practices and why use those in real situations in your job and you will gain tools to produce reliable, robust and verifiable software.

• Developers
• Programmers
• Analysts
• Testers
• IT architects
• IT managers
• SW development directors

• Professional explanation with practical samples, examples and practical coding katas and exercises.

• Powerpoint handouts and module printouts.

Underlying principles:

• Agile and Scrum in terms of development team member view
• Lean practices for developers - what successful delivery means
• Scrum development team - roles and responsibilities
• Agile Architecture and Design - emerging agile architecture approach
• Quality & Agile, Testing challenges in an Agile Environment
• XP - Engineering practices
• Devops

Code Katas - exercises focused on learning of principles and practices:

• Unit testing - basic setup and exercise
• Clean code - how principles are helping to make code better
• Test driven development (TDD)
• Refactoring - you don't have to write perfect code from scratch
• Kata retrospective & learnings

Code Katas - focused on:

• Test doubles - Mocks, fakes and stubs
• Double loop TDD - acceptance test driven development
• Kata retrospective & learnings

Other helpful tools - hands on experience:

• Behavior driven development (BDD)
• Functional testing - when and how to use automated functional testing
• UI testing
