This course explores contemporary development principles and practices, including the role of project management, testing, and business analysis within both Agile and traditional Waterfall environments.

Designed as a workshop-style session, the course provides delegates with opportunities to ask questions and examine real-life applications of the material covered.

The course is structured as a series of modules, with each module lasting approximately 1.5 hours. Consequently, a single training day would consist of four modules.

Intended Audience

This course is designed for individuals seeking a rapid overview of contemporary Waterfall and Agile software development methodologies and their impact on project management, testing, and business analysis.

Domain-Driven Design (DDD) is a methodology for managing complex software behaviours during development.

A wide range of proven and tested patterns are readily accessible to everyone. Often, the task involves adapting the names and applying the pattern to a specific technology. This approach can save hundreds of hours that would otherwise be devoted to design and testing. Training Objectives This course has two primary goals: first, it enables you to reuse well-known patterns; second, it empowers you to create and reuse patterns tailored to your organization. It helps you estimate how patterns can reduce costs, systematize the design process, and generate a code framework based on your patterns. Audience Software designers, business analysts, project managers, programmers, developers, operational managers, and software division managers. Course Style The course emphasizes use cases and their relationship with specific patterns. Most examples are explained in UML and simple Java examples (the language may vary if the course is booked as a closed course). It guides you through the sources of the patterns and shows you how to catalogue and describe patterns for reuse across your organization.
