Agile engineering practices
At Pyxis, we are convinced that Agile software development approaches such as Scrum allows, when used with discipline and courage, to significantly increase the productivity of software development teams.
Our experience showed us that beyond the mastery of organizational practices a key factor for the success of an iterative and incremental development is the appropriation by the development team of Agile engineering practices such as refactoring, test-driven development (TDD), and domain-driven design (DDD).
At Pyxis, we think that the adoption of the following Agile engineering practices is a determining factor:
Test-driven development enables your team:
- To frequently deliver significantly higher quality software
- To gradually develop a complete set of automated tests and executable specifications
- To concentrate on the creation of value by producing new functionalities instead of correcting bugs
- To progressively generate robust and perennial design and architecture via refactoring
Domain-driven design helps your team:
- Adopt and share a language that is common to all project stakeholders
- Create software that reflects your business field and thus evolves easily to meet your changing needs
- Isolate the business rules at the centre of your applications
Agile modeling allows you:
- To reduce your project’s start-up costs by adjusting initial analytical tasks
- To timely introduce and enrich most relevant models
- To explore and assimilate your business field by using an emerging formalism as well as tools accessible to all stakeholders
Software usability guides you:
- To produce useful and usable software
- To reduce the efforts required from your users, thus generating budgetary savings for your organization
Our team will help you acquire the skills and expertise in Agile engineering practices in order for your transition to Agility to be the success you expect.
You can benefit from our Agile expertise as a global offer of software development, training, and coaching.
You can also choose to appropriate our Agile engineering practices by immersion, that is by working together with us (Ensemble) to carry out your projects.
