Ubuntu Philosophy v3 a bit more agile

To follow this post, it might be interesting to read the others before:
- v3 vs Agile Metrics
- Scrum for Dummies

I am aware that it is more beneficial not to have to make such adjustments, and work directly with agile methodologies, but sometimes we are forced to do so by customer requirements to work with other heavier type of approach (especially if public administration), and we are not going to give up a way of working (internally, in this case) that has brought us great benefits.

In this post I will provide the focus we give to these projects in the Software Engineering Division of Soltel .

I will focus on the adaptation performed under analysis, and its subsequent use in the various stages of development. The purists will say that what we do is Scrum, as neither have high customer involvement, we can not teach "product" from the first iteration. I agree, so in this case, call it Scrum.

Document Analysis in Metric v3 is the ASI (Analysis Reporting System). I think it is best to start targeting the activities and artifacts that have our ASI:

Catalog Requirements: Functional Requirements

Information Requirements and Restrictions

Business Rules Nonfunctional Requirements

use case catalog:

Use Case Model

Use Case Specification

Analysis Class Model

Traceability Matrices

Requests

change
As noted, all these components are going to generate a lot of work, so we need to optimize to reuse everything we can. Begin by the Functional Requirements.

What if we wrote the functional requirements like user stories? Metric is not prescriptive about this, which ultimately leads to a problem of granularity. Our functional requirements shape our Product Backlog. So when you finish the analysis phase, we estimate the sprints, and start using Scrum.

other hand, it is worth investing time in the reporting requirements. If we describe it, we will automatically Analysis Class Model.

the end, each team must find ways of working which will contribute most, if not we can put the sign with the name of the methodology of fashion. To us this little adaptation has served us.

And you, how do Metrica v3 agile?
