Study Notes
Personal Software Process (PSP) Model
- A comprehensive framework for training software engineers
- Consists of scripts, forms, standards, and guidelines used in the training
- Helps software engineers identify areas for improvement
- Prepares software engineers to work in a team project
PSP Framework
- Consists of a series of predefined processes:
- PSP0 & PSP0.1: introduce process discipline and measurement, including baseline, time recording, defect recording, defect type, coding standards, and process improvement
- PSP1 & PSP1.1: introduce size estimation, planning, and scheduling
- PSP2 & PSP2.1: introduce quality management and design, including code review and design review
- PSP3.0: guides component-level development
Team Software Process (TSP) and Agile Processes
- Agile processes are suitable for working on "wicked" problems and emphasize teamwork, joint development with users, rapid development, and frequent incremental deliveries and verification/validation
- Agile development is guided by 4 values and 12 principles
Agile Values
- The 4 values of Agile development:
- Individuals and Interactions over Processes and Tools
- Working Software over Comprehensive Documentation
- Customer Collaboration over Contract Negotiations
- Responding to Change over Following a Plan
Agile Principles
- The 12 principles of Agile development:
- Early and continuous delivery of valuable software
- Welcome changing requirements
- Deliver software frequently
- All stakeholders must work together
- Build projects around motivated people
- Face-to-face communication
- Working software is the primary measure of progress
- Maintain a constant pace of development
- Attention to technical excellence
- Simplicity is essential
- Self-organizing teams
- Review at regular intervals and improve method and behaviors
Process and Methodology
- A process is a set of inter-related activities organized into phases to construct something (usually a system)
- Each phase produces some work products that are used as inputs to the next phase
- The completion of each phase establishes a milestone
- A methodology implements a phase of a process and defines the detailed steps on how to carry out the activities specified within the software process
