Session One: Smoothing the Continuous Delivery Path - practices for improving your team's delivery

Lyndsay Prewer, Delivery Manager, Equal Experts

Continuous delivery is gaining recognition as a best practice. It is now in use by many leading organisations, including Netflix, Amazon, and Etsy. Yet despite offering a proven way of reducing risk, reducing time to market, and increasing a team’s agility, adopting and improving continuous delivery is challenging.

Lyndsay Prewer offers an experience report of practices used by two very different teams to improve their continuous delivery. Both teams were sizeable (more than five features teams) and mature in their use of Agile and Lean practices. One team chose Scala, MongoDB, Docker, and microservices on a greenfield project. The other faced the constraints of legacy code, .Net, MySQL, Windows, and a monolithic architecture.

Lyndsay shares the practices and pain points encountered by the two teams, looking at those common to both and those that were specific to each team’s own context.


Session Two: Ball Point Game - taking it further

Bethan Timmins, Delivery Manager, Equal Experts

The Ball Point Game by Boris Gloger is one of the most famous Agile games to help teach people the basic concepts behind Agile delivery. It allows participants to understand the basic principles of a scrum team and the concepts of velocity, fixed time box delivery, self organisation and communication.

However, for those of us that have been working within agile teams for a while, how can you use this game to highlight specific issues your project team is facing? This session will go through the Ball Point game and highlight how it can be used to tackle specific project problems and where you can use it to help your organisation.

Food and drinks will be provided. We look forward to seeing you there!
