I've heard some things in recent months: 1. The CSP program is being re-designed for about the 4th time in 4 years. See the quoted email below as posted on...
Rodrigo, from your answer I feel you are not the "kind" of consultant I was talking about, and it seems that we do agree a lot. It is really irritating to me...
Interesting - Charles you seem to have stumbled across an announcement that hasn't been made yet. First of all, the work is being done by the ScrumAlliance...
Mark, I know for a fact that at least one and probably two CSTs are pushing it as they have expressed their thoughts in a discussion on LinkedIn in the CSP...
This discussion could just as easily be applied to the role of software tester instead of ScrumMaster. In some organizations, software tester is a career...
Lets say the Fubar needs refactoring (code duplication, clumsy and confusing logic, etc) but it and all of the modules that interact with it are operating to...
Hi All, I am wondering if there had been any recent research comparing Scrum/PM software tools (JIRA, Clarity ...) for small and large projects .. side by...
... I don't consider the Sprint a time-box like the others, but rather a fixed-length event. Sure, it has a maximum duration, but unlink the other Scrum...
Hi All, I was working on identifying a good scrum tool for my organization. Could anyone share their experience on identifying an appropriate tool. Also, it...
Hi Cass, ... In order to answer, I must know: Do you mean that it is just sitting there not being edited? Or are we making changes that involve it? And, more...
Ron, (I don't mean to interrupt or hijack). Do you have your views on technical debt in something that is published? I would love to see that as I think it's...
On Wed, Aug 22, 2012 at 12:43 PM, Charles Bradley - Scrum Coach CSP CSM PSM ... Joe appears to have posted a summary of internal email to a public group. Joe...
Rupesh, ... To identify an appropriate tool, you must first identify - what you want the tool to accomplish, and - what complicating factors exist in your...
... Well, changing managing directors that often certainly seems to be a sign of dysfunction, but that doesn't seem like anything that will be fixed any time...
Simple and easy Whiteboard on a wall where everyone can see. Everyone is everyone involved in the project including who serves coffee. Why? Everyone can follow...
Charles, ... Let me put them right here. If anyone doesn't find them quite obvious and clear, please inquire. Never give code to the Product Owner that is not...
Good points, Richard. That's kind of where I was going, too. I view the *Sprint length* to be time-boxed, but the Sprint itself to be of fixed duration. ...
Ron, Brilliant. Just brilliant! Thanks so much for posting. I wish that you would publish it somewhere on a web site or book or something, but I will...
Hi Charles: I agree with what Ron says above, but let me give you a slightly different take and see if it helps: In TDD we refactor towards a Simple Design....
As is true always, I respect your opinion, Ron. I have always viewed this list as a public forum for the general Scrum community at large, and I consider the...
Charles, ... Of course it is, and of course they are. And the purpose here, I would imagine, is to talk about Scrum. Ron Jeffries www.XProgramming.com Wisdom...
Adam, Well said as well. I think I have a very good idea of the viewpoint(which I attribute to Ron, mostly because I've heard the viewpoint most often from...
... Bit of a nit here: the "Scrum of Scrums" meeting is only one way (and not the best IME) for multiple teams to coordinate with each other. If you use this...
Pito, I essentially agree with other posters and don't like a one-size-fits-all approach to expressing story tests. In particular, the Gherkin style can get...
Adam, ... I agree. Once the code is bad enough to slow you down, you'll likely never get it back. Ron Jeffrieswww.XProgramming.com I try to Zen through it and...
