The tricky part to agile software development is that there is no manual telling you exactly how to do it. You have to experiment and continuously adapt the process until it suits your specific situation.

This book aims to give you a head start by providing a detailed down-to-earth account of how one Swedish company implemented Scrum and XP with a team of approximately 40 people and how they continuously improved their process over a year's time.

Under the leadership of Henrik Kniberg they experimented with different team sizes, different sprint lengths, different ways of defining "done", different formats for product backlogs and sprint backlogs, different testing strategies, different ways of doing demos, different ways of synchronizing multiple Scrum teams, etc. They also experimented with XP practices - different ways of doing continuous build, pair programming, test driven development, etc, and how to combine this with Scrum.

Your team's constraints may dictate a different configuration of practices (and even compromises), but here is an example of how to approach the "continuous improvement" process that will make your Agile process work best for you.

This book includes:

* Practical tips and tricks for most Scrum and XP practices

* Typical pitfalls and how they were addressed

* Diagrams and photos illustrating day-to-day work

* Testing and test-driven development

* Scaling and coordinating multiple teams

* Dealing with resistance from inside and outside the team

* Planning and time estimation techniques

* Forwards by Jeff Sutherland and Mike Cohn

首先，个人觉得这是一本不错的小书。 说它小，是因为这本书很薄，100多页吧，无非就是程序开发那点事。说它不错，是因为它很实用，没什么花哨的东西。 其次，这是一本scrum的实施指南。 周围的很多程序员，看了太多的敏捷的思想，听了太多的敏捷的原则，xp、scrum、sprint更...
