Abstract:
Faced with challenges in relation to
interpretation of requirements, issues with build
and deployment and excessive integration defects,
this paper examines how a software team propose
using a novel combination of Covey’s ‘First
Things First’ principle and Cockburn’s
Methodology Shaping, as a potential solution to
examine their current process and define a new set
of working conventions which will address these
issues.
