A central tenet of the Agile methods is collaboration -- all participants in the project being actively involved with each other in all of the project work. While this sounds great in theory, it can be problematic in practice because all team members are not equal.
Most of the Agile methods describe team members as generalists. Some (for example, Extreme Programming) explicitly describe a team of generalists, with no team member owning code or any other thing, and all team members having the authority to do anything that is necessary to achieve the goals of the User Story at hand.
But can we achieve the Agile ideal of full and open collaboration when our team members are not generalists? Is there a place for specialists on Agile teams?
Topics covered:
·
Technical Experts, Agile
Generalists, Generalizing Specialists on Agile Teams
·
The role of a specialist
in Testing
·
The role of a specialist
in Requirements Elicitation

Requirements are the heart and soul of a BA. This is the bread and butter for what a BA looks forward to every morning! Yet, how are requirements done well in today's busy and chaotic environments? How can you possibly manage when you have no ownership on end results yet still are laden with the full responsibility to deliver?!
In this session we walk through practical applications of requirements analysis & design and managing requirements in the 'real world' - where strict processes and templates may not always be followed (or even created), learn tips and tricks to help keep efforts on track and moving in a positive direction even when you're not the leader or person in charge (or even get the title of Business Analyst)!
Topics to be covered during this session are planning for requirements elicitation, elicitation techniques, traceability, testing plans, validation, approvals, tracking and even reuse.

Continuous Delivery (CD) is gaining steam as a practical set of technical processes for delivering end-to-end application value in a faster, more incremental fashion. Continuous Delivery is also closely associated with DevOps, although there is much debate about exactly how the two terms overlap.
In this one hour web seminar, we will bring some clarification to these topics as we present an overview and take questions on Continuous Delivery. We will relate CD as a set of workflow and IT management practices to DevOps as a cultural movement, and discuss the complex relationship between the two. Key areas of discussion will include:
·
CD: What is it?
·
A brief history of
continuous delivery
·
Why CD is so important
·
Continuous Delivery and
DevOps
·
Real-world case study:
implementing Agile, DevOps, and CD at scale

DevOps focuses on being lean and eliminating waste by retaining the fundamental principles of Agile. At the same time, it improves the collaboration between dev, IT and ops. So how does all of this impact the BA? A BA has a crucial role to play in coordinating between teams. DevOps is a cultural change. It's about sharing business objectives and getting all the stakeholders working towards a common objective. The BA role can be a key DevOps player and the go-to person for business success. In this session, get a quick introduction to DevOps and the impact it has on the BA and how the BA role can be a factor for organizations.
