Agile Cheat Sheet §

TLDR §

1. Visualize the work
2. Stop early binding
   • People should be assigned as late as possible
3. Impose WIP limits
4. Swap push for pull
5. Start ordering
6. Stop estimating
7. Trigger planning

Don’t build features that nobody needs right now §

• Don’t write more specs than you can code
• Don’t write mode code than you can test
• Don’t test more code than you can deploy

On Story slicing §

1. Take a story from the backlog
2. Slice the story vertically (independently releasable; contains DB, Frontend & Backend layers)
3. Categorise slices

• Later (story cannot be developed right now)
• Now (story can be developed right now)
• Never (story should not be developed at all for various reasons)
