Tools to facilitate Agile Development
The first item in the Agile Manifesto reads that we must prefer “people and interaction over process and tools.”
Given a choice between average people with superior tools and superior people with average tools, you are likely
to achieve greater success with the latter. However, it is important to be continuous and not be episodic?so you
want to get continuous feedback about the state, health, and quality of your code and application. Tools can
help us a great deal to realize this and make us productive.
In this presentation we will take a look at
tools (and their relevance and value) that can help smoothly execute your projects.
