Software Architektur im StreamIntro to Beyond Estimates with Woody ZuillLet’s explore the purpose and use of estimates in the management of software development efforts, and consider possible alternatives.
We say we depend on estimates to make important decisions, and yet we’re often disappointed by the results.
Why are we so challenged at using estimates? Are estimates for cost, time, or effort always needed? Is it possible there are other ways to approach our work? If we didn’t use estimates, could we be successful at building software?
The default use of an “estimate-driven” approach is pervasive in software development efforts, and while...2025-02-261h 12

Roasting MarshmallowsThe power of the pairWay back in episode 13, we discussed mobbing, or ensemble programming, with Woody Zuill. While we think this topic deserves more widespread recognition and adoption, there’s no denying that pair programming is more well known, and is being done more.Of course, pairing is not limited to just programming. For example, studies have shown that kindergarteners sharing an iPad enables them to learn more and score better on certain tests, most likely due to forcing them to collaborate, which in turn emphasises communication and sharing alternative viewpoints.Collaboration and communication are the key words here, an...2022-03-1551 min

Cucumber PodcastCollaboration Between Testers and DevsThe history of testers and developers working together is a bumpy road. Throughout the evolution of software development, testers have struggled to be treated as equals and developers have lacked the understanding of why they should care. Yet some teams do it well - both roles have a good experience and the resulting software benefits from the different perspectives.
In this podcast, Franziska and Maaret speak to Matt Wynne to share some tips on how to improve this in your team.

Agile Amped Podcast - Inspiring ConversationsWoody Zuill and Mob Programming to "Get the Best Out of Everybody into Everything We Do"Woody Zuill is an Agile coach working on the "original Mob programming team". As is befitting since Woody coined the term "mob programming"--which is, as he puts it "pair programming, except for everybody here is going to be involved." For him, mob programming is a natural evolution of pair programming. Like in pair programming where each pair helps problem-solve and vet the resulting code, in mob programming, "When you work with a whole group, you get the best of everybody... We're not looking into getting the most out of everybody... We're looking to get the best out of everybody...2016-05-2613 min

.NET Rocks!No Estimates with Woody ZuillHow do you estimate your projects? While at NDC, Carl and Richard talk to Woody Zuill about delivering software WITHOUT estimates. Woody starts out with a clarification - it's not zero estimates, just no estimates around particular features for an application. But how? Your customers want estimates, the trick is to deliver so quickly that there isn't time to estimate before you've delivered code. And does it have to be code? Isn't our goal to solve problems, and code is only one possible solution? Lots of great thinking about how you provide value to your customers!2015-07-0254 min

In the end the “what” of project management is important because control, discipline and coordination are needed tools to deliver value; the journey toward Agile is the reframing of the “how” of project management.
