In 30 brief, engaging chapters, Lacey guides you through everything from defining roles to setting priorities to determining team velocity, choosing a sprint length, and conducting customer reviews. Along the way, he explains why Scrum can seem counterintuitive, offers a solid grounding in the core agile concepts that make it work, and shows where it can (and shouldn’t) be modified. Coverage includes
Getting teams on board, and bringing new team members aboard after you’ve started
Creating a “definition of done” for the team and organization
Implementing the strong technical practices that are indispensable for agile success
Balancing predictability and adaptability in release planning
Keeping defects in check
Running productive daily standup meetings
Keeping people engaged with pair programming
Managing culture clashes on Scrum teams
Performing “emergency procedures” to get sprints back on track
Establishing a pace your team can truly sustain
Accurately costing projects, and measuring the value they deliver
Documenting Scrum projects effectively
Prioritizing and estimating large backlogs
Integrating outsourced and offshored components
Packed with real-world examples from Lacey’s own experience, this book is invaluable to everyone transitioning to agile: developers, architects, testers, managers, and project owners alike.
