This guide shows how development teams can plan, track, and manage work by combining the Scrum agile framework and Microsoft’s Azure ALM/DevOps toolset. Richard Hundhausen covers team formation, backlogs, Sprints, test plans, collaboration, flow, continuous improvement, Azure Boards, Azure Test Plans, and the real-world tradeoffs associated with DevOps.
The book has tips throughout from experienced Professional Scrum Developers, and Hundhausen has organized the material to complement Scrum.org’s Professional Scrum Developer (PSD) program.
