In the pre-guttenberg days, printing the Bible was done by teams of monks with a lot of hand crafted labor—even the paper and ink had to be made. Many hands over one year were involved in the production of a single bible. Software development is the same way. The post 013 Developer Intent and the Bible first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

TDD是一个聪明的过程。通过在编写代码之前编写测试，您将最终使用代码来扩展测试。 The post 012 TDD的一个案例 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

TDD is a clever process. By writing your test before the code, you end up growing your test with the code.   The post 012 An Example of doing TDD first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

Bas Vodde, in the bay area. One of the founders of less. Boss: How can we get the same fun dynamics of a single team but working with multiple teams? Because often they add so much stuff and bureaucracy and distance between the teams and the actual users, that it's no fun anymore. The post 052 Same Fun Dynamic at Scale first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

Bas Vodde in the bay area, one of the founders of LeSS on “Why Scaling?” The post 051 Why do people want Scaling? first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

I think you get the idea--there are a lot of different scaling Scrum frameworks.  How to effectively scale Scrum from a single team to hundreds is the big question many in the industry are trying to solve.   The post 050 Introducing the Scaling Agile with LeSS series first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

在过去的二十年中，敏捷革命曾经是很尖锐并且是可选择的，而现在是IT行业大多数团队使用SCRUM和看板的主流。您可能还没有意识到，尽管这两个流行的精简权重框架是有价值的更改。 它们根本不涉及如何构造支持频繁交付的代码。 The post 010 敏捷和TDD玩忽职守 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

Over the last twenty years the Agile revolution which used to be edgy and alternative is now mainstream with most teams in the IT industry using Scrum and Kanban. You may not have realized that although those two popular lite weight frameworks are valuable changes, they don't at all address how to construct code that supports frequent delivery.

我们的今天也是未来[echo, jetsons sounds or future sounding music] 世界一直前进，但仍然没有飞行汽车[whawha wha..] 。嗯，的确有会飞的汽车但是却没有大规模生产。为什么不量产呢？我们的开发人员和经理是为什么仍然没有这么好的东西的部分原因吗？是lT低质量的跟踪记录的责任吗？我们必须使用补丁，然后安装，并且希望这个新版本不会使事情变得更糟？ The post 009 介绍测试驱动开发系列 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

Today is the future. [echo, jetsons sounds or future sounding music] The world has been marching forward but still there are no flying cars.  [whawha wha..] Well, there are flying cars but none mass produced. Why not? Are We developers and we managers part of the reason why we still don't have such nice things?  Is the low quality track record of IT to blame?  Must we be used getting patches, and...

连续集成坐标的测试金字塔的内容就像交响乐的指挥一样。 回顾金字塔一般有三层：阁楼里充满了UI宏观测试，中间有皮下宏观测试，底层是大量的微观测试。CI的目标是尽可能快地向团队提供有价值的反馈。 The post 008 导体—连续集成 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

​ Recall the pyramid generally has three floors: the penthouse filled with UI macro tests, the middle is inhabited by subcutaneous macro tests, and the ground floor--a plethora of micro tests. The goal of CI is to give valuable feedback to a team as fast as possible. The post 008 The Conductor—Continuous Integration first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

​At this point, I hope you got the ideas of why overdoing the upper floors of the pyramid will cause it to tumble. In the previous episode I mentioned you can get a test pyramid worksheet. This worksheet can be used to plan out how to build your project's mighty pyramid of test. The post 007 Size Matters first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

在这一点上，我希望你得到了为什么在金字塔上层测试过度会导致金字塔跌倒的想法。在上一集里我提到了你可以得到一个测试金字塔工作表。这个工作表可以用来计划如何建立测试项目中最雄伟的金字塔。 The post 007 尺寸重要 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

​ 狮身人面像是一个神话人物，有人的头和狮子的身体，喜欢提出问题并要求答案。如果你没有正确的回答问题，狮身人面像吃你。在IT行业，最接近狮身人面1像这个角色的质管和上线经理，他们虽然不可能吃你的，但会问一些问题来决定你的产品是否在一个好的状态下。 The post 006 来自于狮身人面像中的谜语以及就在金字塔中的答案 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

​ Sphinx, a mythological creature with the head of a man and the body of a lion, loves to ask questions and demands answers. If you don't answer the questions correctly, the Sphinx eats you. In IT, the closest to a Sphinx are QA or Release managers, who although may not eat you, will ask questions in order to decide if your product is in good shape.

Teams have found that just because acceptance criteria COULD be made into hard to maintain and unreliable UI test, many of them actually don't need to be executed via the UI but instead in some sub layer beneath. The post 005 Subcutaneous Tests first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

团队发现，只是因为验收标准可能让测试难以维护以及不可靠的UI测试，其中许多实际上不需要通过UI执行，而是在下面的某个子层中。 The post 005 皮下测试 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

在网上你就可以浏览到测试自动化金字塔的图像，你会看到宏观测试是在顶部和微观测试在底部，就如协商好的一样。但是位于二者的中间仍隐藏着许多神秘。我全副武装去探索了许多其他公司的自动化金字塔。我了解到，有些人将他们的服务API测试放在这里，有些人将独立的数据库测试或其它一些测试超出了边界，如过程和网络。但是每个人都同意，他们可以在底层保持简单的成千上万的的微观测试但只有少数UI和全栈的测试在玻璃阁楼顶部（所...

Images of the test automation pyramid are available online and you'll see good agreement that macro tests are at the top and micro tests in the bottom. But there's a lot of mystery about what goes into the middle floor. I've put on my leather hat and brought my bullwhip and explored the automation pyramids at many other companies.

While the bottom of the test pyramid is biggest enough to house a few soccer fields and a monster truck rally, the top floor of the pyramid only has room for a long long table, a big screen tv, and a minibar fridge. Oh yeah, and macro tests. The post 003 Macrotests at the Top of the Pyramid first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

当测试金字塔底部最大的空间大到足以容纳几个足球场和一个怪物卡车，而这个金字塔的顶层只有一个长长的桌子的房间，大屏幕电视、冰箱、迷你吧！ The post 003 金字塔顶层 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .

金字塔的最小楼层是顶部，因为它比宽敞的底部窄得多。而顶部只有一个乒乓球桌和电视的空间，底部有一个足球场或两个房间。 The post 002 金字塔的基石 first appeared on Agile Thoughts .
