Instead, it is measured near the end of the process, when code is handed off to be tested. This approach often results in extra work and a slipping schedule as features thought to be complete are pushed back to developers for rework. You want to build better software. You want the applications you build to be better, cheaper, and faster to release. One of the most costly stages of software development is finding and fixing bugs. What if you could find the bugs and fix them nearly immediately? In this session, learn tips and tools you can use with Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008 to determine code complexity, validate the capabilities of the application, and understand the overall quality of the software you are building. Join this session and learn the how to enable development teams to incorporate quality, early and often throughout the life cycle. If you want to improve the code you write then don't miss this session. | | Agenda: | | 09:00am – 9:30am | Registration | | 09:30am – 10:30am | Caring about Quality Code | | 10:30am – 10:45am | Coffee break | | 10:45am – 11:45am | Ensure Code Quality in Development Team |
