Virtual Tour of an Embedded Agile Team
Embedded systems development often includes special challenges: software tightly coupled to rapidly evolving hardware, an end customer with whom you cannot interact, a long period of infrastructure building before any business-value features are delivered, expectations of ultra-high reliability, and more. These challenges have convinced many embedded developers that agile is not for them. Nancy Van Schooenderwoert takes you on a virtual tour of an actual agile team developing software and firmware for a safety-critical embedded system. Follow their first iteration and examine what worked and what didn't. Through this virtual visit, Nancy explains how "plain vanilla" agile practices leave a gap, and she shares her teams' solution to the problem-agile practices tuned to the embedded world. Agile principles need not be watered down or compromised when you are faced with the challenges of embedded systems development. On the contrary, they truly shine in complex situations where there is too much uncertainty for sequential processes to work well.
