Audio Books →Software Development Pearls Lessons from Fifty Years of Software Experience [Audiobook]

Wiegers' insights and specific recommendations cover six crucial elements of success: requirements, design, project management, culture and teamwork, quality, and process improvement. For each, Wiegers offers first steps for reflecting on your own experiences before you start; detailed lessons with core insights, real case studies, and actionable solutions; and next steps for planning adoption in your project, team, or organization. This is knowledge you weren't taught in college or boot camp. It can boost your performance as a developer, business analyst, quality professional, or manager.
Clarify requirements to gain a shared vision and understanding of your real problem; create robust designs that implement the right functionality and quality attributes and can evolve; anticipate and avoid ubiquitous project management pitfalls; grow a culture in which behaviors actually align with what people claim to value; plan realistically for quality and build it in from the outset; use process improvement to achieve desired business results, not as an end in itself; and choose your next steps to get full value from all these lessons.
