See eXtreme Programming (XP) in action at the hands of an XP master--and learn Microsoft .NET and C# programming in the process! In this fast-paced, hands-on exposition, Ron Jeffries--one of the leading voices and practitioners in the XP community--demonstrates that you can write well-designed, resilient code incrementally and safely, while minimizing your investment in speculative up-front design. As Jeffries builds his sample application, you get firsthand insights into what successful XP development looks like, complete with real-world challenges such as the eleventh-hour change order. For further practice and study, you can download all the author's code--including the missteps--so you can see XP and agile concepts in action and assess how they fit into your own work.
