29.99 €
Perfect software cannot be created without learning from experience.
Experience is the main teacher, but it is slow and often painful. But why should we repeat mistakes? The book "Development Pearls" will help you improve faster and avoid many problems by learning from the experiences of others who have already climbed the learning curve. Carl Wiegers has formulated 60 concise, practical lessons that will work for any project, regardless of role, industry, technology, or methodology.
The ideas and specific recommendations cover six critical elements of success: requirements, design, project management, culture and teamwork, quality, and process improvement. For each area, Wiegers offers "first steps" to reflect on your own experience, lessons with key insights, real-world examples and actionable solutions, and "next steps" to implement the lessons in your project, team or organization. This is knowledge you can't get at university!
