Hi All, Just wanted to share one interesting weblog entry and my opinion/experience on it - the subject line is taken from the following Sara Ford's weblog entry: "How I Learned to Program Manage an Agile Team after 6 years of Waterfall" http://blogs.msdn.com/saraford/archive/2009/03/16/how-i-learned-to-program-m anage-an-agile-team-after-6-years-of-waterfall.aspx "The mind just simply can't comprehend" - this is what happens with every(?) experienced developer's mind used to develop and debug their software via long running (heavy) debug sessions as well as with "waterfallish" PMs - the mind of experienced in "doing it other way" developers and managers just can't comprehend how Test Driven Development can results in robust "bullet proof" software usually developed with a lot less pressure and stress - and (sic!) with higher quality, adaptability to the future changes, agility. That's a long way to get one's mind starting to really comprehend what happens when you take that route - the sooner you'll start following it - the better for your business. Thank you. -- Shamil
