“… Imagine dramatically shrinking your testing effort while, at the same time, increasing its velocity; being able to make decisions based on a real-time dashboard without having to re-invent your organization…”
Software is critical in today’s business environment and its success depends heavily on a daunting paradox: provide higher quality software, faster. To achieve this, many organizations are adopting Agile development practices. With the transformation to Agile comes organizational culture change – to some, culture shock. Specifically, how will you transform your traditional quality practices and empower testing teams to thrive in the high-velocity, collaborative, incremental development world of Agile?

SOA is a method for aligning technology around the needs of the business that is Agile by nature. However, this decentralized, service-based model will change how we design, develop and deploy enterprise software. With SOA, we are constantly subject to a changing set of services and new business requirements, which introduces huge risks and productivity issues, in terms of quality and interdependency among teams.
What does Agile mean in today's Service-Oriented
world? And how will Agile teams break the barriers of quality and
dependencies that reduce the value of going to SOA? Join iTKO's John
Michelsen, Rally Development's VP Products Zach Nies, and the experts
at the Agile Journal for a unique educational session on SOA Testing,
Validation and Virtualization for the Agile practitioner. Learn about
the new methods and tools companies are using for flexibly delivering
business functionality, while ensuring quality -- without the
burdensome constraints of limited access to needed resources.

With 80% of software development taking place in distributed environments and Agile development methodologies adoption on the rise, organizations are faced with a new twist on the Agile challenge: How to support software change and configuration management for Agile teams despite geographic boundaries?
As collaborators become increasingly distributed, the emphasis gradually shifts from group support to system support and process adherence becomes even more vital. In this converging world of seemingly diametrically opposed goals, automation and innovation in collaboration are the keys to successfully managing the ‘Agile Shift’.
As the cornerstone of software development, your SCCM solution must balance these goals. In this session we will explore the dilemma facing software development organizations as well as some of the best practices Borland customers have adopted to support them in their transformations.

development, the need for continuous integration of a build can be a
daunting and cumbersome task.
Like many firms Intuit has seen a dramatic increase in its software
production requirements, from releasing two products in an annual
release to delivering multiple products in multiple releases per
year. In this webinar Jon Burt, Manager of SCM at Intuit, discusses
why and how his team implemented a continuous integration strategy for
the QuickBooks line.

Do you face any of these challenges in your distributed development project?
• Disconnection on project requirements or estimation
• Decreased visibility into project status
• Erosion of trust among individuals in the project
If you do, you are not alone. Let’s face it; global collaboration is hard. Because software development is, at its core, based on communication. Every aspect of a project is fundamentally changed the moment that team members lose the ability to communicate face to face. As a result, it’s far too easy for a distributed software project to be unsuccessful.
And yet, the allure of distributed projects is very powerful: cost savings, 24/7 availability of development, access to talent and more.
No wonder then, that Project Managers are expected to deliver results with Global teams.
