Agile Comes to You seminar in Santa Clara, CA

The event was very interactive with other software development professionals and demo ‘day-in-the-life’ engineering best practices and the tools needed to make Agile successful within your development team was very good.

Learnt the core fundamentals of Agile development practices and what they mean to the various roles within development teams. Also how one can apply software configuration management, continuous integration, and quality management best practices within your Agile team was one of the topic.

There were real good examples from industry leaders of how development organizations can reduced risk, boosted productivity and cut development costs with Agile.

Also perspective from Dev teams, Executive, management teams for integrated set of best-of-breed tools can help to enable quality, collaboration and visibility. As development teams adopt Agile practices, frequent releases, continuous builds and integration and quality management become everyday activities.

Key note by Skip Angel, Principal Agile Coach at BigVisible – ‘Leadership in the Agile World: Where do Managers Fit In?’ was very impressive.

Applying Agile’s core principles within your development organization and Agile Tooling Demo – how using best-of-breed tools can support Agile Development were some of the core topics.
