Overview

The agile transformation is an act of transforming an organization’s form or nature gradually to one that can embrace and thrive in a flexible, collaborative, self-organizing, and fast-changing environment.

Additionally, it explores applications of the Verification Loop that allows IT organizations to deliver value quickly and safely with high quality. Along the way, the book provides an array of insights and case studies that dive into all the aspects of software delivery, and how to implement Continuous Delivery in the most economical way for long-run business development. Features Organization culture and software architecture Business requirement management Pipeline and tooling Branching and releasing strategy Automation strategy Configuration and artefacts management Deployment and production healthy The case studies at the end of the book—scenarios in which the author was personally involved—are explored in depth and meticulously detailed in order to represent typical agile transition scenarios that will benefit all readers.
