Topic Overview:
We are fortunate to have Jack Milunsky from Brightspark speaking. Jack is Brightspark’s COO, a Scrum master, and the co-creator of Agilebuddy. Agilebuddy is a web-based Scrum management tool that includes all of what you’d expect to find (i.e., management of product, release, and sprint backlogs, burn-downs, bug tracking, etc.). Additionally, Agilebuddy also includes collaboration features that help teams that are not co-located.
This talk is not just “another vendor pitch.” Yes, Jack will talk about Agilebuddy, but he will also talk about how they built Agilebuddy using Scrum and XP. Note that they completed the application in under 6 months using Rails, and how they used Test Driven Development. This type of productivity is worth hearing about!!!
