I presented “Succeeding With Agile & TFS 2010” for the MADdotNET User Group last night to a full house.  I want to thank everyone for the turnout and the great questions and discussions!  I’m going to try to post some articles as follow-ups to some the the questions that were asked last night that didn’t get the attention they deserve.  Some of these topics will be:  Agile Estimation, Technical Debt, Code Churn and including bugs and refactoring on the Product Backlog.  Let me know if I missed anything you want me to cover.

For those that are interested, here is the presentation:

Making the transition to Agile can be challenging for even the most seasoned organization. Having good leadership and the right tools can make all the difference. Drawing on nearly two decades of experience Chad will be walking us through methods that can be used to avoid common pitfalls and using Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2010 as an Agile platform. In this highly interactive session, Chad will demonstrate some of the new features of TFS 2010 as they relate to Agile estimation, planning, execution and measurement. If your organization is considering a migration to Agile or the TFS 2010 platform, you are encouraged to attend.
