Features: Together has developed a very excellent set of tools that support the complete lifecycle, used to construct high-quality, high-efficiency, and high-performance software. Rapid Development of the Best Software is an authoritative guide to Together. In this book, two top Together instructors and us separate the methods for achieving success in every step of the development process: from planning to requirements, to development, debugging, delivery, and management. Whether you are an analyst, architect, designer, developer, or manager, and regardless of the technology you are using, this book will help you effectively organize and enhance your next software project—Together! The main goal of this book is to help development teams achieve the best software with the smallest budget. This book recommends a lightweight and flexible software development process: just enough process, just enough form, and just enough documentation. The book is woven throughout with four major themes: maintaining only a single source model; minimal meta-model; disruptive change model; and continuous quality measurement, primarily discussing how to use the Together software development platform to help you deliver software of the same quality or even higher quality in a shorter time—i.e., rapid development of the best software. This book is suitable for software development teams, team leaders, and project managers, especially for software development teams that use Java or similar object-oriented languages as their programming language. It is also suitable as a reference manual for teachers, students, trainers, and consultants.
