ADPEast 2010 - Michael Mah - Agile Teams by the numbers - software metrics and the big giant database

I speak with Michael about the M word.  Yes Metrics and
Agile teams have seemed to be at odds for a long time.  If
you look at a large enough population of teams using many
differing methods you can however glean information that is
useful.  It turns out that on average Agile teams deliver on
our goal of delivering higher quality software, predictably and
without increasing costs.  There is a lot the data does not
say about individual teams but this information is gold when
approached by one of the remaining skeptics.


I hope you enjoy this podcast.
