Course Description:
'' In 1996 Grady Booch, Jim Rumbaugh and Ivar Jacobson released the first version of the Unified Modelling Language (UML) in an effort to harmonise the modelling documentation of systems development; the aim was to provide an extensible, complete and coherent set of diagram definitions whereby analysts and designers could specify, in great detail, what developers should produce in the way of source code.
About the same time, or a little before, some systems development practitioners were developing so-called ‘lightweight�methods, later to become known as Agile, such as Rapid Application Development (RAD), eXtreme Programming (XP) and Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM). In some of the lightweight practitioners minds at least, documentation of any kind was considered a thing of the past or minimal (although minimal was never defined).
The practical application of these two subjects is of course somewhere between the two extremes of detailed modelling and none at all. Unfortunately, there is no ‘recipe-book�approach to what of UML should and what should not be used in an Agile environment; one of the questions that Agile practitioners always ask themselves constantly before starting work on anything is ‘Do we need it?� The answer is always dependant on the organisation needs, the project needs and the needs of the project team.
This course gives delegates an overview of Agile philosophy, principles and practices; an overview of UML and discusses the elements of UML that are appropriate to produce in an Agile development environment for different needs.
Who should attend?
Architects (Business and Technical), Agile Project Managers, Team Leaders, Developers
Course style
Exercises will be used throughout the course to illustrate the concepts and approach, including a case study based around a typical multi-faceted project.
Prerequisites
Delegates must have experience of software development in any role
An appreciation of current methods and architecture options, such as object orientation, client/server and the Internet, would be an advantage
Delegates will learn how to
Understand the concepts of agility
Understand how the UML diagrams integrate
Produce appropriate UML diagrams for different phases of the Agile lifecycle
Use UML architecture and design patterns
Understand the Agile practices specific to developers
