Description
Master proven processes for improving development with Scrum and Azure DevOps
This guide can help any development team plan, track, and manage work far more effectively, by combining today’s leading agile framework (Scrum) and Microsoft’s ALM/DevOps toolset (Azure DevOps). Renowned Scrum expert Richard Hundhausen thoroughly covers team formation, backlogs, Sprints, test plans, collaboration, flow, continuous improvement, Azure Boards, Azure Test Plans, and the real-world tradeoffs associated with DevOps. Throughout, you’ll find practical, in-the-trenches tips from experienced Professional Scrum Developers. To make this guide even more valuable, Hundhausen has organized it to complement Scrum.org’s popular Professional Scrum Developer (PSD) program, which he created with Scrum.org’s Ken Schwaber, author of this book’s Foreword.
