Maryse Meinen: Value Over Velocity, A Product Owner's Journey to Value-Driven Development, NoEstimates Unplugged Week This is one of a series of episodes where Product Owners explain how they used, and benefited from #NoEstimates in their work with teams.  To know more about #NoEstimates, sign-up to get the first 3 chapters of the book here. Introduction to #NoEstimates Maryse Meinen shares her journey into agile and lean methodologies, highlighting a pivotal moment at her first international conference where she attended a workshop on #NoEstimates led by Seb Rose. The workshop's quiz on estimating the distance from Earth to the moon led her to an epiphany about the common tendency to provide estimates even when uncertain, driven by peer pressure—an insight that spurred her to experiment with the #NoEstimates approach.   A Real-World Example of Success Maryse describes her experience with a new team tasked with developing an infrastructure solution without relying on traditional estimates. By focusing on conversations, card confirmations (the 3 C's of User Stories), and refining story points to either 1 or 0 based on whether a story was refined, the team managed to prioritize work more effectively. The practice of making items as small as possible and focusing on delivering value in various forms proved to be beneficial. Challenges in Implementation The biggest challenge in implementing #NoEstimates was not from management or stakeholders, but rather from inexperienced scrum masters resistant to deviating from traditional estimation techniques. Maryse found success by allowing the team space to operate independently and focusing on outcomes rather than estimates. Impact on Planning and Prioritization Shifting the focus from estimates to value delivered led to a significant change in how Maryse's team approached planning and prioritization. By setting sprint goals around solving real problems for real people, the team moved away from a task-centric to a value-centric approach. One of the core tenants of the #NoEstimates approach. Measuring Progress Without Estimates Maryse's team measured progress by the problems they solve, framing sprint goals around these problems and communicating achievements in terms of value delivered to stakeholders, rather than in traditional estimation-driven progress metrics, like tasks completed - which would not necessarily deliver any value to end-users and customers. Advice and Resources for #NoEstimates Maryse encourages teams to start experimenting with #NoEstimates and emphasizes the importance of continuous learning and adaptation. She recommends engaging with the #NoEstimates community on Twitter and exploring resources by Allan Kelly and Seb Rose, as well as the NoEstimates book.   About Maryse Meinen Maryse is an Product Owner dedicated to fostering experimentation, agility, and empathy within organizations.

Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) is a term that was coined by Dan North in 2006. It came about as a response to a very specific problem – teaching developers how to think about testing their code. It incorporates the ubiquitous language idea from Eric Evan’s book Domain-Driven Design, and this evolved into a technique used by the whole team to collaboratively specify how the finished system should behave. While both approaches focus on collaboration, DDD focuses on a shared model for building software and BDD focusses on specifying the behaviour of the system. So what can we learn from both our techniques? Join us in this session were Seb Rose, Steve Tooke and Matt Wynne will discuss with us how we can improve modelling with BDD. We will bust popular BDD myths and talk about their favourite collaboration techniques.

This month we dig into the financial risks of open-source software. Chairing the conversation is Seb Rose who is joined by his colleague Dermot Canniffee. Answering the questions is Aslak Hellesøy who created Cucumber some 12 years ago. Cucumber's success has led to many of the world's most valuable company relying on its software for critical parts of their codebase. So what are the financial risks for companies who use OSS tooling every day? And who pays when an OSS tool is no longer looked after?

This month on the Cucumber Podcast we have another conversation with Janet Gregory and Lisa Crispin. They have released their latest book, Agile Testing Condensed (https://leanpub.com/agiletesting-condensed). In this conversation, Matt Wynne and Seb Rose ask the pair about the book and testing best practices in modern agile teams.

In this podcast recorded at the Agile 2018 conference Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Seb Rose, a dispassionate developer, and one of the principals of Cucumber Limited about his work at Cucumber, the Cyber-dojo charity, designing a robust certification program and involving testers in code reviews Why listen to this podcast: • Cucumber is more than a testing tool – it is a collaboration tool • There is a lot of confusion around what Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) is and isn’t • BDD is made up of three distinct practices: Discovery, Formulation and Automation – Cucumber is only about the Automation practice • Provide concrete examples to communicate business needs using BDD to ensure that business rules are defined unambiguously • Cyber-dojo is a place for people to practice their coding skills on many platforms • Ideas around designing a robust certification scheme The value of having testers involved in code reviews goes far beyond reading the code

On this episode, Seb Rose, co-owner at Cucumber Limited and author of several books on Cucumber, gives us a look at how Behavior-Driven Development works alongside Test-Driven Development to tame legacy code. We walk through his personal version of Dante's rings of corporate hell and discuss why we should start thinking of the relationship between Acceptance, Integration, and Unit tests as an iceberg rather than a pyramid. 

This month on the Cucumber Podcast we speak to Beth Skurrie, who is the maintainer of the open-source project, Pact. Pact falls into the category of contract testing and with the advent of microservices and continuous delivery, it's getting more and more important.

On the podcast this month Seb Rose speaks to Henry Coles, the creator of Mutation Testing tool PIT. Here's how they describe Mutation Testing on the PIT Test website - "Mutation testing is conceptually quite simple. Faults (or mutations) are automatically seeded into your code, then your tests are run. If your tests fail then the mutation is killed, if your tests pass then the mutation lived. The quality of your tests can be gauged from the percentage of mutations killed." *They discuss:* - What is mutation testing? - How widely adopted is this approach in the enterprise? - When and where should you use mutation testing? - What can developers learn from academics? - What are the similarities and differences between Mutation Testing and Property-Based Testing **Shownotes** PIT Test - http://pitest.org/ Quick theories (Property-Based Testing tool) - https://github.com/ncredinburgh/QuickTheories Work at NCR - NCR careers - http://ncredinburgh.com/jobs/

Today we’re going to be talking about communities of practice and how they can support learning in your company . Communities of Practice are “formed by people who engage in a process of collective learning in a shared domain of human endeavor” [1] In the organisations we work with, we encourage those with similar skill sets - testers for example - to get together with others in similar roles, who work in different departments. This wider pool of individuals can then support one another in their day-to-day work. It could therefore be said agile faces a paradox; we have all battled for smaller, cross-functional teams to improve communication and learning, but are we now losing out on the wider knowledge held in other departments? Communities of Practice is addressing this. To join us to discuss the subject we’ve invited Emily Webber, an independent agile and lean consultant, who has recently published her book “Building Successful Communities of Practice”. This week’s host, Matt Wynne, is also joined by our podcast regulars, Arti Mathanda and Seb Rose. You can find out more about Communities of Practice and Emily’s book on her website - http://emilywebber.co.uk/building-successful-communities-of-practice Let us know your own experiences and thoughts on twitter @cucumberbdd or in the comments below.
