This week I will investigate part 2 of the Agile Manifesto, as part of my series of four podcasts on the subject.

This week I'll examine the first point in the Agile Manifesto, as part of a series of four podcasts.

In this episode we will examine the roots of the Agile Movement, and delineate the Agile Manifesto that came from those roots.  This will begin a series of five podcasts that point out the implications of each item in this manifesto.

No matter what kinds of products and services an organization offers, there are terms that are specific to them.  These terms must be carefully defined and consistently updated as things change.  This podcast is all about creating such a set of definitions.

This episode will introduce a useful framework for organizing requirements as the are identified.  Such organization can be very helpful in collaboration and validation throughout an agile process.

Various technologies provide us with the concept of "inheritance".  What should this used for, ideally, in an agile development environment?  This episode addresses this question in a way that should be interesting to non-technical people as well as developers and testers.

The way we create business automation in the modern environment has been influenced by the strength of various innovations that have preceded us.  This week I'll introduce this idea, and then over the next few episodes will examine some of the implications and opportunities.

Last week I pointed out that Test-Driven Development, even though it is named as it is, is not a testing activity but rather the creation of an executable specification.  So how does this change how they are written?  That's the subject of this episode.

This week I wrap up my answer to the question of three weeks ago and is so going point out, perhaps, the most important aspect of TDD, and how to make sure it delivers all the value it is capable of.

Part two of my answer to the question posted two weeks ago.  There is one more to come, next week.  It may be the most crucial of these answers.
