hiho,
On slide 7, I take issue with the intermixing of development
process stuff and the definition and adoption of the process. I think
that the Process items are sort of Environment discipline things that should
not be demarked as blue “OpenUP/Basic Practices”.
I am also concerned with replacing our project management with
something explicitly called Scrum. We are adopting Scrum techniques, but
must we say we are unambiguously “doing Scrum”? Scrum has a
Product Backlog and a separate Iteration Backlog; we have one Work Item
List. Are we going to toe-the-line with Scrum terms and work products?
What if we meet and decide that we have a better technique than the Scrum way
of doing things for some aspect of project management? I appreciate
adopting a Scrum perspective in OpenUP project management, but I am concerned
about simply labeling it as Scrum.
On slide 11, I would be careful to use the words “Test
Cases” rather than just “Tests” in the Intent area so they
are not confused with “Test Scripts”.
I’m psyched for Work Patterns. They provide a
very good chunk of methodology to be able to talk about and adopt piecemeal.
As discussed on the call, I want to make sure the late
addition of roles to the methodology content is not going to be more effort
than it is worth. I don’t discount that it could add value.
But I am concerned that the repository is too complicated already with three
roles making up the Analyst role for example. Furthermore, we often have
text in the tasks that talks about collaborating with others. The tool
currently can publish the right name when the role is mentioned in the text,
but if we decouple the tasks from any knowledge of roles the text could get so abstract
that we lose clarity (e.g. “Collaborate with someone who knows how to do
detailed requirements on this”, “ensure that someone who has
authority over the scope agrees with that”).

[epf-dev] Restructuring OpenUP - Meeting Thu
Jan 24, 8-10 AM
|

Hi,
We would like to discuss some problems we have identified with the current
structure, and propos some ideas on how they could be addressed. We hope this
presentation will generate a good discussion and additional innovation. Topics
will include:
1) How to achieve a higher degree of reuse of process content between different
processes
2) How to allow more flexibility around role assignments
3) How to allow you to provide a more easily configurable proces
4 ) How to improve usability, and align the
presentation of OpenUP with OpenUP's adaptive mgmt approach and work-item
focused approach to development.
