Summary

This talk investigates technical issues encountered when moving to an Agile process. How will your codebase react to an increasing level of change? How can you get your software into production more frequently? What kind of tools can you use to make the transition as smooth as possible? How can you merge frequent releases with other, less agile teams? These and other questions are addressed.
