How much Agile can you learn in one day? The answer is: a lot.

How much Agile can you learn in one day? The answer is: a lot. In this course, Michael Feathers will walk you though the history of Agile and explain all of the relevant practices - when they should be used and when they shouldn't. You'll learn how to do the initial and on-going planning for a project, how to write user stories, when to estimate (and when not to) and, through simulations, you'll learn how emergent design through Refactoring and Test-Driven Development impact the development process.

“ Seven of my team members took part in the Obtiva TDD Boot Camp, and they have been truly transformed by the experience. The skills they acquired are apparent not just in the clean code they produce, but also in their extremely professional approach to project delivery. I consider Obtiva's TDD training nothing short of a breakthrough. „
