![]() Peter Hodgkins, Roadmapping Practice Manager, Enthiosys
About the Webinar:
The general premise of Agile development is that code leaves the organization perfect and always ready for customer use. In part, this is based on more modular development and techniques such as test-driven development (TDD). But is bug-free software practical, and what trade-offs does it imply? Product Managers know that absolute standards and mandates often lead to less-than-ideal results in the real world. In this webinar, Peter Hodgkins will talk about the use of Quality Levels in an Agile organization and why thoughtfully defining different quality levels makes good business sense. Drawing on his direct experience managing large software efforts, he will paint scenarios needing an assortment of quality targets and standards, matching customers and business needs. About the Presenter:
