The art of agile development
"Containing practical guidance for anyone using agile development to build valuable software, this book describes what agile development is and why it helps software projects succeed. It also combines information for developers, managers, testers, and customers into a single package they can apply directly." "The Art of Agile Development offers a gestalt view of the agile process, including no-nonsense advice on planning, development, delivery, and management based on the authors' many years of experience with Extreme Programming (XP). It provides hands-on technical practices for developers and testers, as well as information for nontechnical readers. The authors also tackle a difficult aspect of agile development: building cooperation and trust among team members."--Jacket
