Extreme Programming Explained
Embrace Change
Beck, K. & Andres, C. (2004) Extreme Programming Explained. Addison-Wesley. isbn: 978-0321278654.
Beck describes a project methodology that focusses on the daily practices developers can use, in order to achieve results in a faster, reliable, and sustainable way. While other methodologies dive into team structure, and management, Beck and Andres decided to stick to reusable practices that can be applied in most settings. This book popularized the ideas of “Test Driven Development” and “Pair Programming”, and is a must read for any developer that is looking to increase their knowledge of project approaches and the technical practices that support them.
