Agile Development on a Bullet-Train

When you have the Agile Development Tools and you know how to leverage the Agile Method you tend to spend a lot of time working on coding projects that are fun to work on.

There’s more to being Agile than the Scrum

Some may wish to feel like their use of the Agile Method ends with the daily Scrum as if conducting a quick Scrum is what being Agile is all about.

The Agile Method is all about the code.

Agile Development without writing Unit Tests

Just about every Hiring Manager I have ever interviewed with has had people on staff who felt Unit Testing was required.

What if Unit Testing is not required for Agile Development ?

Why are so many who seem to practice the Agile Method not being more effective ?!?

The Agile Method seeks to produce working code quickly.

Why not simply begin every single project with a library of reusable modules ?!?

This is such a simple problem.

Agile Method Produces 442,255 lines of code in 24 months

Write enough software over the years and soon or later you will begin to notice one undeniable fact.

Code Reuse Works

Code Reuse simply works !

Raising the Bar

If nobody is raising the bar then everyone is lowering the bar.

Think about this now…   If all you have on staff is a bunch of people who are not being pulled along by someone who can move faster than the rest there is no reason for anyone to feel there is a race and nobody advances.

The MVC Design Pattern

The MVC (Model Viewer Controller) Design Pattern is seen as being the holy grail of software engineering in some circles.  Some people put so much faith in MVC that they will not consider any other design pattern even when another design pattern results in less work.

Here is a really good case in point.

The ActionScript 3 Simpler Singleton Pattern

What could be more Agile than a Simpler Singleton requiring far less code that any other Singleton Pattern you may have heard about ?

This Singleton Design Pattern can be adapted to work with any language that handles Classes in the same manner as ActionScript 3 (Class files are imported only once regardless of how many modules actually import the Class file).
