Features: "Agile development methods are the key to the future success of flexible software systems. When business conditions change and require the purchase and management of software development, Scrum is one of the pioneers. This book distills the theory and practice of the Scrum method, making it a must-read for developers and managers in a volatile world to address various software challenges. Currently, most managers are dissatisfied with their company's ability to deliver systems on time and within reasonable costs. However, even under pressure, they are unwilling to admit that their developers are incompetent. If it's not the engineers' incompetence, then what is hindering them from developing systems quickly and cost-effectively? Scrum can answer this question and solve such problems." If it's controversial to say that this book is one of the most important works on technology and system development work management, then perhaps it is; but this book indeed describes how to rapidly build systems using the seemingly simple yet exquisitely sophisticated Scrum process. Through this book, readers will recognize a new system development method that can overcome the complexity of systems, the ambiguity of complex definitions, sudden demands, and unstable technologies, thereby enabling the continuous and rapid development of high-quality software. What use will this book be to you? · Help you understand how to start incremental software development immediately, regardless of what software you currently use; · Help you simplify the implementation of agile processes; · Help you understand how to simplify the implementation of XP through Scrum wrapping; · Help you understand how agile processes work and how to manage agile processes; · Help you grasp the theoretical foundation of agile processes.
