Are you a developer or tester navigating the world of Agile? Do you want to understand how to excel in frameworks like Scrum and Kanban while delivering high-quality software?
Agile How To: Thrive as a Development Team Member in Scrum and Kanban is your essential guide to mastering Agile as a contributor who builds and delivers software. Whether you’re new to Agile or looking to sharpen your skills, this book offers practical advice, actionable strategies, and real-world examples to help you succeed in any Agile environment.
What You’ll Learn
1. Core Agile Foundations
- Understand the principles of Agile and how they enhance collaboration and efficiency.
- Explore the differences and benefits of Scrum and Kanban frameworks.
2. Practical Guidance for Developers and Testers
- Participate effectively in backlog refinement, sprint planning, and retrospectives.
- Build quality into your work with practices like Test-Driven Development (TDD) and Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD).
- Use AI-powered tools to automate coding, testing, and performance optimization.
3. Advanced Agile Practices
- Collaborate with Product Owners to clarify user stories and align priorities.
- Partner with Scrum Masters to resolve blockers and improve team dynamics.
- Shape product discovery by contributing to spikes and identifying edge cases.
4. Aligning with the Business Vision
- Deliver software that aligns with user needs and organizational goals.
- Use metrics and feedback to drive continuous improvement and innovation.
5. Avoiding Common Pitfalls
- Manage technical debt, scope creep, and overcommitment effectively.
- Address Agile misconceptions like “no planning” or “no documentation” to maximize your impact.
Reflection for Self-Growth
Most chapters includes a dedicated reflection section, encouraging you to evaluate your practices and identify areas for personal and professional growth. These exercises empower you to adapt what you’ve learned to your unique context and evolve alongside your team.
Who This Book Is For
This book is designed for developers, testers, and contributors looking to thrive in Agile environments. It’s ideal for professionals working in cross-functional teams or those who want to deepen their understanding of Scrum and Kanban.
Why This Book Stands Out
With a focus on actionable insights, developer-centric guidance, and self-reflection, How To: Thrive as a Development Team Member in Scrum and Kanban bridges the gap between theory and practical application. You’ll gain the tools to succeed, whether you’re refining user stories, collaborating on product discovery, or delivering high-value increments.
Take the next step in your Agile journey and unlock your full potential as a development team member.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
