Riassunto

Feature-Driven Development (FDD) combines the speed and flexibility of agile methods with model-driven techniques that scale to the largest projects. This definitive book, A Practical Guide to Feature-Driven Development, shows FDD at work in real-world projects as it presents start-to-finish guidance on adapting FDD to the reader's needs. It offers in-depth coverage of all five FDD stages: modeling, feature lists, planning, design, and software construction.

L'autore

STEPHEN R. PALMER specializes in domain object modeling using TogetherSoft's exclusive modeling-in-color technique and the FDD process. He has over 12 years of experience working on software development projects throughout the world and in many different industry sectors. He cut his development "teeth" designing and implementing real-time software in C and Fortran on major projects within the UK power utility industry. More recently, he has worked on major projects in both government regulatory bodies and banking in Singapore. Steve was the first full-time mentor engaged by TogetherSoft and is the editor of the monthly technical newsletter, The Coad Letter (http://www.togethercommunity.com/coad-letter).

JOHN M. FELSING has more than 22 years of experience working on multimillion-dollar software development projects in diverse application domains. For a year and a half, he served as Senior Coad Certified Mentor at TogetherSoft, where he supported TogetherSoft's product lines and mentored teams that were applying OO Design and FDD techniques to projects.

The first practical, start-to-finish guide to implementing Feature-Driven Development!

Feature-Driven Development (FDD), created by Peter Coad and Jeff De Luca, combines the key advantages of agile methodologies with model-driven techniques that scale to the largest teams and projects. This book demonstrates FDD at work in real-world projects and provides project leaders with all the information they need to successfully apply it in their own organizations.

Stephen R. Palmer and John M. Felsing show how applying FDD can help solve problems that neither traditional nor agile methodologies can address. They help you identify the projects that are best suited for FDD, and then walk you step by step through the entire FDD development process.

Coverage includes:

• Understanding FDD's model-driven, short-iteration approach to software development
• FDD's roles, artifacts, goals, and timelines
• Creating overall models that provide a solid foundation and structure for effective development
• Formalizing the features list: Completing, leveling, clustering, and prioritizing features
• Plan by feature: Establishing class owners, feature-set owners, and rough development plans
• Design by feature: Domain walkthroughs, design, and inspection
• Build by feature: Coding, ongoing inspection, testing, and promotion
• Tracking and reporting progress to technical leads, project managers, sponsors, and upper management
• Applying FDD to user interface and external system interfaces
• Adapting FDD to your projects—and your business and technical environment
