Résumé
Extreme Programming (XP) has been the subject of heated
debate since it burst on to the programming scene in 1998.
Understandably so, because it contradicts many traditional
software development beliefs. We've heard success stories
about sweeping changes made to organizations, and all of
the good that has come as a result of them. We've read
books about how this approach can work for our teams. But
what about the times when it isn't appropriate? There are
certainly instances when making the leap to XP could
sacrifice a whole project. What's missing from all of this
rhetoric? Witness Pete McBreen, software craftsman, examine
the issue from both sides.
In Questioning Extreme Programming, the author helps you
answer such questions:
- Is the cost of change really low?
- Does XP do proper testing?
- Does XP make sense?
- Is XP a return to the dark ages?
- What can other approaches learn from XP?
- Do you need process improvement or process change ?
- Why are developers so zealous about adopting XP?
- Is XP suitable for your projects?
- What is the next step after Extreme Programming?
