Things of interest - simple "trick"
How can we find things of interest about Agile ? How can we master Agile? Here's a trick: let's find out which are the main areas of interest and performance for the authors of Agile Manifesto, the "founding fathers":
(my apologies for possible mistakes)
- Robert C. Martin (initiator of AM) - Design principles for OOP, Clean Code, Software Craftsmanship Manifesto
- Martin Fowler - Refactoring, Patterns (Architecture, Design, Analysis), UML books, Technical Debt Quadrant
- Kent Beck - XP creator, TDD, jUnit, CRC cards
- Ward Cunningham - Portland Pattern Repository , WikiWikiWeb, the World's first wiki; Technical Debt definition; Also contributor to XP
- Jeff Sutherland - Scrum creator
- Ken Schwaber - Scrum creator
- Ron Jeffries- also founder of XP
- Alistair Cockburn - Effective Use Cases, Crystal methods, PM Declaration of interdependence
- Jim Highsmith - Adaptive Software Development
- Mike Beedle - Scrum consultant , applies Scrum and XP together
- Arie van Bennekum - Dynamic Systems Development Method
- James Grenning - invented Planning Poker
- Andrew Hunt - book author: The Pragmatic Programmer
- Jon Kern - co-authored "Java Design"
- Brian Marick - Agile testing
- Steve Mellor - contribution to UML extension and MDA
- Dave Thomas - Co-author of The Pragmatic Programmer
Topics by Numbers
Another "trick": let's count the main themes to see what matters most:
- Software design: 14
- Agile methods & process: 10
- PM: 2
- Agile requirements: 2
It is pretty simple to master Agile, right? Just learn all these things!
