The TexelTek Process

TexelTek, Inc. uses an Agile software development process to build high quality products.

Agile methods generally promote a disciplined project management process that encourages frequent inspection and adaptation, a leadership philosophy that encourages teamwork, self-organization and accountability, a set of engineering best practices intended to allow for rapid delivery of high-quality software, and a business approach that aligns development with customer needs and company goals.

This process allows us to adapt to changing requirements at a lower cost.

Customers receive applications that do exactly what they need.

Product owners are the day-to-day proxy for the customer and must understand customer needs. Product owners approve user stories based on the acceptance criteria defined for the story and keep the backlog up to date. A user story is a software system requirement formulated as one or more sentences in the everyday or business language of the user.

Agile project managers are responsible for removing obstacles. Many of the obstacles are identified during the daily scrum or standup, a daily, 15-minute gathering used to answer 3 questions: What did I do yesterday, what am going to do today, and what is in my way. Project managers are also responsible for reporting and managing schedules by using the release planning in conjunction with the scrum master.

Scrum masters act as coaches, facilitators, and educators for the project. The process is their focus. Writing stories can be hard, so the team needs the scrum master’s help to ensure they are written in terms the customer can understand. Educating new team members and the customer on process is also a scrum master’s responsibility.

Development team members have many functions such as writing code, testing, and technical writing. Teams are self-organizing and members have a chance to influence direction working towards the main goal, which is quality.
