Adaptywny kod. Zwinne programowanie, wzorce projektowe i SOLID-ne zasady. Wydanie II

Gary McLean Hall

Tworzenie oprogramowania nie może być procesem powolnym. Dziś zespoły projektowe muszą cechować się elastycznością i dynamiką działania, aby odnieść sukces. Wymagania stawiane kodowi mogą wielokrotnie się zmieniać podczas projektu. Oznacza to, że wprowadzanie zmian do kodu powinno być proste i możliwie mało pracochłonne. Deweloperzy, którzy wdrożą zasady programowania zwinnego i będą przestrzegać związanych z nimi dobrych praktyk, będą w stanie sprostać tym wymaganiom. Niniejsza książka jest przeznaczona dla średnio zaawansowanych programistów, którzy dobrze opanowali tworzenie kodu zorientowanego obiektowo i chcą przyswoić sobie najlepsze praktyki programistyczne. Książka stanowi pomost między teorią a praktyką, ułatwiający wdrożenie w codziennej pracy wzorców projektowych, zasad SOLID, testów jednostkowych czy refaktoringu. Wyjaśniono tu stosowanie zawiłych reguł, takich jak „otwarte – zamknięte”, zasad podstawienia Liskova, metod wstrzykiwania zależności czy zwiększania adaptywności kodu za pomocą interfejsów. Przedstawiono również pewne antywzorce projektowe wraz ze wskazówkami, w jaki sposób można ich uniknąć i zapewnić potrzebną funkcjonalność bez utraty elastyczności kodu. Najważniejsze zagadnienia: metodologie Scrum i kanban, zależności i warstwy architektury kodu, testy i refaktoring, odwracanie zależności, wiązanie i spójność kodu. Gary McLean Hall jest programistą i architektem oprogramowania. Jest cenionym konsultantem, który specjalizuje się w dobrych wzorcach i praktykach programistycznych. Pracował w wielu zespołach ukierunkowanych na tworzenie adaptywnego kodu w takich firmach, jak Eidos, Xerox, Nephila Capital czy The LateRooms Group. W swojej pracy zawsze szukał złotego środka pomiędzy tworzeniem funkcjonalnego produktu i wysokiej jakości jego kodu źródłowego. Kod adaptywny: solidny, elastyczny i łatwy w utrzymaniu!

James Shore, Shane Warden

Zbiór praktycznych wskazówek dla producentów oprogramowania Jak wdrożyć metodologię programowania zwinnego? W jaki sposób zaangażować klientów w projekt? Jak kontrolować jakość produktów? Programowanie zwinne (Agile Development) to obecnie jedna z najpopularniejszych metodologii zarządzania projektami programistycznymi. Metodyka Agile jest szczególnie użyteczna w małych zespołach programistycznych, w których z racji ułatwionej komunikacji nie ma potrzeby tworzenia rozbudowanej dokumentacji. Programowanie zwinne opiera się na iteracyjnej realizacji kolejnych etapów projektu. Kluczem do sukcesu w tej metodzie jest efektywna współpraca między członkami zespołu projektowego. Książka "Agile Development. Filozofia programowania zwinnego" to przewodnik po programowaniu ekstremalnym, oznaczanym zwykle skrótem XP, które jest jedną z technik wchodzących w skład tej metodyki. Czytając ją, dowiesz się, jak wdrażać metodologię Agile w firmie, na czym polega programowanie ekstremalne i jaką rolę w procesie pełnią poszczególni członkowie grupy projektowej. Nauczysz się budować zespół i określać zakresy zadań osób biorących udział w pracach, planować harmogram udostępniania kolejnych wersji produktu oraz kierować procesem jego tworzenia. Poznasz metody testowania programu i usuwania z niego błędów, zasady pisania dokumentacji oraz reguły prowadzenia spotkań roboczych z klientami.
