Agile application development From the team to the customer
At the end of the sprint, we test the software, which allows us
to see the progress we are making on quality.
It also becomes clear here if the work on a story was not precise
enough and whether revision is necessary.
Testing the software
When analysing a story we determine in the "Use case",
which tests to run.
During the implementation these tests undergo further refinement.
The team has a great influence over the desired level of quality.
This provides you with a "definition of done" as an aid.
We have a generic one for the whole of IT and, based on that,
each team has a more detailed one of its own.
This states what must be accomplished in order for something
to be considered completed.
Review
A review is always carried out at the end of a sprint.
All customers are invited to have us present the implementation to them.
Retrospective
An important component is the retrospective, which comes after the review.
The aim is to improve the scrum process,
so that we become more efficient, faster and better.
Problems are also openly and clearly addressed here.
But it also serves as a platform to point out positive things.
The basic rule is that what is discussed in the room stays in the room.
This promotes openness.
What is enjoyable?
Trying to implement something together.
The high degree of interaction with colleagues is very important to me.
This is why I also welcome the introduction of Scrum
Working with people is what I most enjoy about the work as
scrum master because I'm very close to the teams,
which is both challenging and rewarding.
The diversity. As scrum master you have to deal with many different issues.
Added to this, there is the rapid development in this environment,
which poses great challenges both in terms of
analysis and implementation, given the
large portfolio of technologies we have available.
In addition to all that, there is also the large amount of
interaction due to the scrum process.
What I enjoy is when the team makes significant progress.
When we have achieved something and can see
we have got better and we are going forward.
Making you safer.
