Softcover. Condition: Fine. Abnutzung / Risse - leicht. This handbook is essential for anyone involved in tracking and guiding software development at the team level, such as project managers and team leads. With the rise of agile methodologies like Scrum, traditional measurements have evolved, and this book highlights which met…rics are most relevant and beneficial under specific conditions. It identifies key characteristics of organizational structure, process models, and development methods, enabling you to select the right metrics for your team. The book covers the uses, mechanics, and common misuses of various metrics that aid in steering and monitoring process improvement, all based on field experience. Just as a car's measurements help prevent issues like speeding or running out of gas, effective metrics can significantly reduce the likelihood of project failures. You'll learn to gather, analyze, and utilize metrics that reflect your organizational structure and development methods. Practical techniques include building tools for tracking key metrics and creating data-driven early warning systems. The content is accessible, requiring no formal experience in metrics development or application. Key topics include identifying valuable metrics, differentiating between "improvement" and "change," and understanding common pitfalls. The author, an organizational transformation consultant and agile community member, provides insights drawn from real-world experience.
