"Does Agile imply no design? Can the architecture evolve from doing the simplest thing possible? Is up front design good or bad? These questions, it seems, are still very controversial in the agile community. At the Architect Insight Conference in Newport [March 5], several presentations touched upon the topic of design and architecture in agile development." (Gojko Adzic, Agile Architect - Myth or Reality?)
Alberto Savoia identifies the genetics of testing. "I am rooting, of course, for the major victory [where developer testing becomes a standard software development practice], but I am starting to have my doubts, and wondering why progress is so slow. Below is my analysis of what I believe is happening and I'd be very interested in your opinion." (Testing Genes, Test Infection, and the Future of Developer Testing)
Srinivas Ramgopal shares his company's experience with XP and TDD: "We evaluated XP and TDD for 8 months with a new developer (with good previous experience in them) added to the team. The team is a group of seasoned developers but new to agile development. I thought I would share with you the team evaluation with the main intent to know your input based on your experiences with TDD." (JavaRanch Big Moose Saloon: TDD/XP - sharing thoughts)
