Thinking Inside a Bigger Box

Top five signs that you might not be working on an agile project:

• 5. Your iterations do not produce anything that could be put into production
• 4. You’re not testing your work
• 3. You tasks are called “code the UI for the foo”, “update the bar component” and “test the work done in the previous iteration”
• 2. Your iterations are called “specification”, “testing”, and “preproduction”
• 1. And the top sign that you might not be working on an agile project: You might not be working on an agile project if your iterations are three months long

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy Monkey, everybody.
