Early Days of Agile Development & Is Design Dead?
summary
Recounts the Chrysler payroll rescue where a team pulls a crashed project back to life using extreme programming: relentless testing, continuous integration, pair programming and refactoring, proving code can evolve rather than be “poured in concrete.” Describes the Snowbird meeting of 17 people that yields the Agile Manifesto, argues “design is not dead” but becomes evolutionary with fast feedback, and credits Pramod Sadalage’s refactoring databases techniques for enabling live schema migration.
