Agile Release Planning

This mini-course takes you through the standard approach and the Monte Carlo simulation approach to agile release planning, comparing and contrasting the alternatives, and the benefits and costs of each. While agile release planning is often well understood on a team-level basis, standard approaches do not often work well at the multi-team or a multi-release level. The standard approach can become riddled with inconsistencies and errors; dependencies may become difficult to handle; and, risks can be unknown, ill managed, and poorly quantified, or not at all.
