Agile Software Construction

Autor John Hunt
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 oct 2005
In every software development project there is a need to ensure that the requirements of the user are met without compromising the ultimate goal of the project - these needs frequently change, and are often erratic. Agile software is a means of putting the software first while at the same time reacting to these user requirements in a flexible and agile way.
This book covers the emerging methods and approaches (including extreme programming, feature-driven development and adaptive software development), that are loosely described as "Agile" and shows how to apply them effectively to software development projects. It shows how to plan, organise and develop systems using agile techniques, and highlights some of the problems that may be encountered.
This down-to-earth approach looking at how the different methods can work together, will be welcomed by software developers, architects and engineers, business analysts, development managers and software professionals needingan accessible source of Agile techniques and applications.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"A very comprehensive guide to the most popular current agile methods. The author fully succeeds in bringing together, in a very concise style, not only the essential approaches and methods … but also the necessary tools for a more effective application of agile methods in the real software development process. … By its content, the book addresses the software development theorists and practitioners alike. By its style, it is an excellent guide for any kind of student interested in achieving skills for agile software construction." (Tudor Balanescu, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1095 (21), 2006)
"Cyberneticians, systemists and software users and also developers will welcome a text that, says the publishers, focusses on the realities within which most software projects have to work. This appears to be useful addition to the literature and is branded as exhibiting the author’s ‘down-to-earth’ approach when he examines how different methods can be worked together for successful results. It is an easy-to-use book that provides ‘an accessible source of Agile techniques’ as well as useful applications." (W. R. Howard, Kybernetes, Vol. 35 (7-8), 2006)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

In every software development project there is a need to ensure that the requirements of the user are met without compromising the ultimate goal of the project. However these needs frequently change, and are often erratic. Agile software is a means of putting the software first while at the same time reacting to these user requirements in a flexible and agile way.
 Agile Software Construction covers the emerging methods and approaches (including extreme programming, feature-driven development and adaptive software development), that are loosely described as "Agile" and shows how to apply them effectively to software development projects. It shows how to plan, organise and develop systems using agile techniques, and highlights some of the problems that may be encountered.
There are very few books available that focus on the realities within which most software projects have to work, and most concentrate on one particular method. John Hunt’s down-to-earth approach looking at how the different methods can work together, will be welcomed by a range of readers including software developers, business analysts, development managers, software architects, software engineers and product architects involved with software development, and software professionals needing an accessible source of Agile techniques and applications.

Caracteristici

There are no Agile method books around which acknowledge the realities within which most software projects have to work (such as imposed by methods such as PRINCE) Additionally, most books focus on one particular approach (such as XP or Agile Modelling) This book tries to take a more realistic look at how the different methods can work together within real development projects
