Work Item Guidance

Who uses “Bug” and how?

Roles

Process Guidance

A brief overview of the activity

The steps to perform the activity

Cycles for Application Development

Cycles describe the frequency with which activities are performed or work products produced and updated

Cycles are about the execution of the project and its tasks

Roles and Advocacies

MSF-Agile vs. MSF-CMMI

MSF for CMMI Process Improvement

Approvals

Change Requests

Formal Reviews

Process Improvement Activities

Requirements Analysis

MSF for Agile Software Development

Iteration Planning

Shadow Architecture

Functional/Exploratory Testing

Test Driven Development

Context-Driven Test

When to use each methodology

• Choose MSF for CMMI Process Improvement over MSF for Agile Software Development, if – Your project has a longer life cycle and requires

a record of decisions made– Your organization is undertaking a broad quality

assurance and process improvement initiative – Your team needs the assistance of explicit

process guidance rather than relying on tacit knowledge and experience

Manifesto for Agile Software Development

We are uncovering better ways of developing

software by doing it and helping others do it.

Through this work we have come to value:

Individuals and interactions over processes and tools

Working software over comprehensive documentation

Customer collaboration over contract negotiation

Responding to change over following a plan

That is, while there is value in the items on the right,

we value the items on the left more.

Software Factory = packaged tools for a purpose

• Published factories may come with process support included

• Or use combinations of publised factories

• You can author factories– Including authoring guidance while in use
