Often teams are on different locations in the enterprise. If you work with agile methode as Scrum or Kanban this is difficult to handle. This short presentation shows you some ideas and pitfalls about this topic.
Scrum is an agile framework that prescribes four events within a sprint: sprint planning, daily scrum, sprint review, and retrospective. A sprint is a time-boxed period of one month or less where a development team works to complete product backlog items from the sprint backlog. The product owner prioritizes the product backlog and the development team self-organizes their work. At each event, the scrum team inspects and adapts their process to optimize their productivity.
This document discusses quality assurance in an agile development environment. Some key points:
- In agile, quality is a team responsibility built into each sprint through practices like test-driven development and continuous integration. QA focuses on working software rather than documentation.
- Traditional QA tested after development, but agile QA works throughout development. Automated testing and continuous integration allow for faster feedback.
- The "definition of done" ensures quality standards are met before work is considered complete. This includes things like testing, documentation, and business verification of requirements.
- Metrics like burn-down charts are used to track progress and quality over iterations. Visualizing progress helps the team respond quickly to changes.

The document discusses lessons learned from scaling an engineering team. It advocates for small, cross-functional mission teams with clear goals and ownership over their work, allowing them freedom to experiment. Key lessons include keeping teams small enough to fit in a meeting room, prioritizing work through objectives and experiments, and giving teams transparency and buy-in for their priorities.
This document discusses reinventing software quality by shifting quality from a cost center to adding value. It notes the number of priority bugs found in a book and test results with 47% coverage and 7 failures. Quality is encouraged to connect with business again by informing decisions and measuring business impact, not just software. Quality should cost less and deliver more value.

This document discusses Agile and Scrum methodologies. It describes Scrum frameworks which include roles like Product Owner, Team and Scrum Master. It outlines Scrum meetings like Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Demo and Retrospective. It also describes Scrum artifacts like Product Backlog, Sprint Backlog and Burn-down Chart which help track and manage work in Scrum projects.
The document discusses test driven development and unit testing. It covers why testing is important for ensuring quality, managing risks and optimizing return on investment. It then defines different types of testing using the V-model and provides an introduction to unit testing. The document dives into test driven development as an approach, explaining how it can improve quality through developing test cases before code, which can help cut costs, shorten time to market and increase programmer productivity by producing organized and effective code.
The document discusses several agile ceremonies that originate from scrum methodology, including sprint planning, backlog grooming, daily stand-ups, iteration reviews, and retrospectives. It provides details on the purpose and structure of each ceremony, such as typical attendees, duration, and topics covered. The ceremonies are presented as regular meetings that facilitate communication within agile teams and help ensure continuous improvement.
This document discusses quality assurance (QA) in agile software development. It explains that in agile, QA is a continuous process integrated throughout the project lifecycle. Each iteration aims to produce potentially shippable code through practices like test-driven development, refactoring, and continuous integration which help build quality in from the start. The agile lifecycle is broken into short iterative cycles in contrast to the traditional waterfall model where testing occurs in distinct phases after coding is complete.
This document discusses common myths about implementing Scrum. Myth 1 is that the project goal is the same as deliverables, but the goal should be maximizing value while deliverables are what is produced. Myth 2 is that satisfying customers means delivering features, but the focus should be on failing fast and cheaply. Myth 3 is that team productivity can be measured solely by deliverables, but business value and learning are more important. Myth 4 is that conducting ceremonies is enough to have an effective Scrum team without other factors like long-term focus and learning mindsets. Myth 5 discusses team composition, while Myth 6 says the Scrum Master is not solely responsible for efficiency. Myths 7 through 9 discuss other implementation issues like defining the
Agile QA: Redefining Quality in the Wild WestFord Prior
Agile has flipped the traditional software development lifecycle on its head. For the QA specialist, the waterfall-driven "testing stage"—where testers execute a pre-defined set of tests within a pre-defined timeline—has been redistributed and re-framed within Agile. I would even say it's been reborn.
Topics: Is Agile changing the quality game? How are QA thought leaders attempting to redefine our space? What are some tips/tricks/mindmaps I can use to do QA right on an agile team?
The document discusses estimation strategies for software development projects. It begins by outlining the risks clients face when relying on estimates, such as wanting to control costs and meet deadlines. Low estimates can lead to low quality work. The document recommends using agile methods like sprints and continuous delivery to manage risks. It provides best practices for estimation, such as splitting tasks, tracking time spent, and involving the whole team. Deadlines are often missed because of inaccurate estimates and other unpredictable factors. Adopting agile methods like Scrum and Kanban can help set realistic expectations and deliver value incrementally.
This document provides an overview of agile software development methodologies, focusing on Scrum. It describes the traditional waterfall methodology and its limitations. Agile methodologies like Scrum promote iterative development through collaboration between cross-functional teams. Scrum uses sprints, daily stand-ups, sprint reviews and retrospectives. Key roles include the product owner, Scrum master, and self-organizing development team. The product backlog and sprint backlog are key artifacts that help manage work in progress.
Scrum is an agile framework that focuses on iterative development through short cycles called sprints. There are three main roles: the product owner prioritizes features and communicates with stakeholders, the development team implements the features, and the scrum master facilitates the process and removes impediments. Key aspects of scrum include daily stand-up meetings to track progress, prioritized backlogs to plan sprints, and retrospectives after each sprint to improve. The goal is to frequently deliver working software and adapt quickly to changes.
Quality assurance in agile software development focuses on close collaboration between developers and testers. Testing is integrated into short iterative sprints to deliver quality code quickly. Common agile methods like Scrum emphasize prioritizing tasks, daily stand-ups to track progress, and sprints to structure work into incremental releases. While agile aims to improve quality through testing in each sprint, challenges can include unclear tester roles and squeezing testing due to deadlines.
Scrum is an agile development method that focuses on managing tasks within a team environment. It advocates for small, self-organizing teams of 7-9 members empowered to manage their own work. Key Scrum roles include the Scrum Master who removes obstacles, Product Owner who prioritizes a backlog of requirements, and the Scrum Team who completes the work. The team works in sprints or cycles to deliver functionality by selecting items from the backlog, estimating tasks, daily stand-ups, and sprint reviews where progress is demonstrated.
This document discusses several agile and lean frameworks including Scrum, Kanban, eXtreme Programming (XP), Feature Driven Development (FDD), and others. It provides overviews of each framework, describing their core practices, events, artifacts, principles, and how they relate to agile development.
The document discusses transitioning to an Agile (Scrum) development process. It defines Agile and Scrum, and reasons for adopting them, such as increasing efficiency and responsiveness. It describes current problems like long, confusing requirements from a system perspective. It recommends implementing Scrum by phasing in participation, timeboxing features, demoing iterations, integrating QA, and defining roles.
The Product Owner manages stakeholders' requirements, communicates the product vision to the Scrum team, and sets goals for each sprint. They own and maintain the Product Backlog, understand user stories, and prioritize work. The Product Owner attends daily standups to listen and provide guidance when needed. They also facilitate continuous improvement, coach stakeholders, and shield the team from distractions to help deliver releases on scope.
The document describes an example scenario of a project team using agile practices to develop a new website with a shopping cart for a client. It outlines the key agile practices used: assembling a cross-functional team, working in short iterations to develop features, prioritizing a backlog of user stories, daily stand-ups to track progress, demonstrating work at the end of each iteration, and reflecting on lessons learned to improve. The team uses these practices to iteratively develop and deliver the website's sales page and shopping cart features to the client.
Transitions to Agile software development always seems complicated when it comes to QA. There are a lot of DOs and DON'Ts but it always seems that 2-3 weeks is not enough for all. In this presentation I cover how a change your mindset and on how you look at the typical problems you can address your challenges with ease and create a mindful process for your organization
This document provides an overview of Agile principles and methodologies like Scrum and Kanban. Some key points include:
- The Agile Manifesto values individuals, interactions, working software, and customer collaboration over processes, tools, documentation, and contract negotiation.
- Scrum uses sprints, daily stand-ups, and meetings to deliver working software frequently from self-organizing teams. Roles include the Product Owner, Development Team, and Scrum Master.
- Kanban uses a visual board to manage work flows and limit work-in-progress to continue delivering value.
The document discusses various agile development methodologies. It defines agile development as delegating tasks, acknowledging change, and promoting feedback. Several specific agile methodologies are described, including extreme programming, Scrum, lean software development, feature driven development, agile unified process, Crystal, dynamic systems development method, and cowboy coding. The document provides information on principles, practices, and comparisons of these different agile methodologies.

Communicative verbs and constructions as markersLidia Pivovarova
The document discusses the use of communicative verbs and constructions as markers of text genre in media texts. It analyzes the most frequent communicative verbs used in several Russian news corpora, including Lenta.ru, Nezavisimaya Gazeta, RosBusinessConsulting news, and Russian Information Agency. The analysis found differences in frequent communicative verbs between more traditional newspapers and news feeds, with "сообщать" (to inform/report) being more common in news feeds and "писать" (to write) and "говорить" (to say) less frequent. Communicative verbs and constructions can help identify stylistic differences between genres but not subject differences between corpora.

Glen Gatin presented his dissertation research which developed the grounded theory of "Keeping Your Distance" (KYD). KYD explains how people use physical, emotional, and psychological distancing strategies to regulate interactions and conserve personal energy. Some key findings include:
- People use different levels of distance as a way to feel safe, autonomous, and to manage their energy levels.
- Distancing strategies include increasing physical space, symbolic/internal distancing, and compartmentalizing.
- An "algorithm of engagement" determines how much distance one places between themselves and others in different situations.
- Technology can impact notions of distance, requiring new applications of the KYD theory.

The document discusses software architecture and how to design architectures that are suitable for the future. It notes that software must be adaptable to changing business, technical and environmental factors. Future-proof architectures need to be designed in a way that facilitates changes to requirements over time, both functional and technical. However, architectures should not try to anticipate all future changes - they should be built simply and divided into independent modules to support flexibility. The document emphasizes that software architecture is important but must serve the goal of enabling application development based on given requirements.

The Graphiti framework is a new approach to create highly sophisticated visual editors on top of the GEF framework. Graphiti can easily be integrated with EMF as the domain modeling framework. The creation of visual editors is done in Java, programming against the Graphiti framework API. It is fairly simple, but yet repetitive, which makes it a candidate to be supported by the means of model-driven development.
Spray aims to provide Domain Specific Languages (DSL) (implemented with Xtext) to describe Visual DSL Editors against the Graphiti runtime, and provide code generation (implemented with Xtend) to create the boilerplate code for realizing the implementation against the Graphiti framework. Potentially the Spray DSL can be used to generate code for other graphical editor frameworks as well, although it is not the primary focus of the project now.
The generated code is structured in such a way that one can always extend/overwrite the generated code with handwritten Java to add advanced Graphiti features that are not supported directly by the Spray DSL. Therefore Spray makes use of the "Generation Gap Pattern".
With the help of the tools created with Spray, Graphiti based diagram editors can be created much faster and reliable than doing it purely by hand.

A domain specific language for configurable traceability analysisHendrik Bünder
This document presents a domain-specific language for configurable traceability analysis of traceability information models (TIMs). The language allows users to define queries over TIM data to retrieve information, compute metrics to aggregate results, and specify rules to check properties. This provides more flexibility than typical traceability tools by enabling real-time configurable analysis of TIMs. An example computes the number of related requirements for each requirement in a TIM using queries, demonstrating how the language can extract useful insights from traceability data. The language has been integrated into a commercial software tool, showing its potential for practical applications in requirements traceability.

Scrum is an agile framework for managing product development. Key roles include the Product Owner, who represents stakeholders and priorities work. The Development Team works in iterations (sprints) to implement user stories, while the Scrum Master helps remove impediments. Ceremonies like planning poker, daily standups, and retrospectives provide transparency and opportunities to inspect and adapt the process sprint-over-sprint. Metrics like velocity and burndown charts are used for planning and monitoring progress. Tools like Jira help automate workflows and provide visibility.
Scrum is an agile framework for managing product development. It involves fixed length sprints where a self-organizing team works to complete user stories from a prioritized backlog. Ceremonies like daily stand-ups, planning poker, and retrospectives help track progress and improve the process iteratively. Metrics like velocity and burn charts provide transparency. Tools like Jira help automate workflows. The goal is rapid, flexible delivery of valuable working software.
This is the talk we give to out founders about how to look for product / market fit, and how to establish KPIs and leading metrics for their startups. We end talking about the kinds of analytics formats that are best to get started with.

Große Entwicklungsabteilungen stehen oft vor dem Problem einheitlicher Entwicklungsprozesse und Werkzeuge. Nach einiger Zeit hat jedes Projekt eigene Prozesse und Werkzeuge etabliert. Dies ist nicht im Sinne der Entwicklungsabteilung. Softwaresysteme müssen i. d. R. über Jahre hinweg gewartet und erweitert werden - oft von einem Team, das sich neu in die Anwendung einarbeiten muss.
Nicht selten stellt die Rekonstruktion der Entwicklungsumgebung einen erheblichen Aufwand dar.
Dieser Vortrag beschreibt - anhand eines Erfahrungsberichts - den Aufbau einer strukturierten Entwicklungsumgebung, die auch für grosse Entwicklungsabteilungen skaliert.
- Zentrale Projekt- und Codeverwaltung (ähnlich wie Sourceforge)
- Buildmanagement mit Maven
- Entwicklungswerkzeuge basierend auf Maven und Eclipse
- Installierbare Teamserver mit Virtualisierungstechnologie für Continuous Integration
Leichtgewichtige Architekturen mit Spring, JPA, Maven und GroovyThorsten Kamann
Gute Software sollte sich an der entsprechenden Fachdomäne orientieren und nicht an der zugrundeliegenden Technologie. Um dies zu erreichen, wird allerdings eine Basis benötigt, die technisch ausgereift ist ohne Einschränkungen für die Entwicklung. Eine solche Basis kann mit dem Springframework geschaffen werden. Die Kombination von Spring, Annotations, Java Persistence (JPA) und Unit-Testing erlaubt eine flexible und modulare Architektur und könnte eine mögliche technische Basis für ein solches Softwaresystem sein.
Dieser Vortrag stellt einen Lösungsansatz anhand eines einfachen Beispiels vor. Die Aufbereitung der Inhalte orientiert sich dabei an einem typischen test-zentrierten Entwicklungsprozess. Folgende Themen werden angesprochen:
* Einleitung Spring und JPA, Maven, Groovy
* Projektstruktur
* Entwicklung der API (der Schnittstellen)
* Test-getriebene Entwicklung der Implementierung
* Spring-unterstützte Integrationstests
Ausblick:
* Spring 2.5 - mehr Annotations; Verwaltung von Entities mit Spring
* Webschicht - Anbindung einer Webanwendung mit Java Server Faces (JSF)
* Spring-Webservices - Contract-First Webservices mit Spring-WS 1.0
Java 6 bietet Scripting-Support out-of-the-Box. Mit Groovy existiert eine Scriptsprache, die sich eng an Java anlehnt und reichlich Gebrauch der Java-Infrastruktur macht. Grund genug Groovy einmal genauer unter die Lupe zu nehmen.
Thorsten Kamann wird in seinem Vortrag die Grundkonzepte vorstellen. Anhand von einfachen Beispielen zeigt er die Mächtigkeit und Eleganz dieser Scriptsprache auf. Im 2. Teil des Vortrags geht er auf erweiterte Konzepte und Komponenten von Groovy ein.
Themen werden u.a. sein:
* Installation
* Syntax - Schleifen
* Bedingungen
* Closures
* GStrings
* Regex
* GroovyBeans
* GroovyBuilder
o XML
o HTML
o ANT
o Swing
o SWT
* Unit-Tests (jUnit, Stubs, Mocks, Code-Coverage,…)
* Weitere Groovy-Komponenten
* Grails
In dem in Kürze zu erwartenden Java 6 ist der Support für dynamische Scriptsprachen enthalten. Mit Groovy ist eine Scriptsprache entwickelt worden, die die Vorteile einer Scriptsprache und einer mächtigen Sprache wie Java verbindet.
In diesem Vortrag stelle ich Grovvy und die verschiedenen Subprojekte vor und diskutiere die möglichen Anwendungsfälle.
Dieser Vortrag findet im Rahmen des Dortmunder Kreises statt.
Maven2 - Die nächste Generation des Buildmanagements?Thorsten Kamann
Dieser Vortrag fand ebenfalls im Rahmen der Bonner Runde statt. Dort habe ich die neue Version des Build- und Projectmanagementools Maven vorgestellt. Nach einem kurzen Vergleich mit existierenden Lösungen habe ich die Konzepte und Features von Maven2 erläutert.

AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix
Talk at the final event of Data Fusion Dynamics: A Collaborative UK-Saudi Initiative in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence funded by the British Council UK-Saudi Challenge Fund 2024, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2025

Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc
Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data.
Attendees will learn:
- Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection
- How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations
- Where business preparedness needs improvement
- What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust
This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.
Artificial Intelligence is providing benefits in many areas of work within the heritage sector, from image analysis, to ideas generation, and new research tools. However, it is more critical than ever for people, with analogue intelligence, to ensure the integrity and ethical use of AI. Including real people can improve the use of AI by identifying potential biases, cross-checking results, refining workflows, and providing contextual relevance to AI-driven results.
News about the impact of AI often paints a rosy picture. In practice, there are many potential pitfalls. This presentation discusses these issues and looks at the role of analogue intelligence and analogue interfaces in providing the best results to our audiences. How do we deal with factually incorrect results? How do we get content generated that better reflects the diversity of our communities? What roles are there for physical, in-person experiences in the digital world?
