  • The Pragmatic Programmer - if you are repeating tasks, automate them.
  • How can we translate customer specs and requirements to documentation?
  • FIT - Framework for integrated testing
  • Story Test - Based on Unit Test idea
  • Customer produces expectations and communicates them to a developer
  • Hopefully it is documented for future reference - if it’s not documented it’s hard to expect people to understand or know if they followed the idea as originally discussed.
  • Story Test
  • Translations must be made from Expectations to Story Tests. Can be translated by developers, QA, customer.
  • Has Criteria (done or not done)
  • ‘Like This’ doesn’t work as well for criteria as boolean
  • If you have criteria to satisfy for the story, you can say how many have been satisfied when reporting progress.
  • Gives a common language between developers and business people.
  • Especially userful if trust is a concern with customers; no expectation that anything done will actually do what was requested. Helps build trust up.
  • Unit Tests
    • Related to the story test, may be several tests for a Story Test.
  • Functioning Code
    • End result (surprise!)
