3. |  Sams Teach Yourself Extreme Programming in 24 Hours By: Stewart Baird Publisher: Sams Publication Date: 23-OCT-2002 Insert Date: 29-APR-2003 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Sams Teach Yourself Extreme Programming in 24 Hours Extreme Programming (XP) is a new lightweight software
developing methodology. XP is the most popular of the "agile"
development methodologies. Agile development is an integral part of
technology movements in the software development world. XP has
quickly gained in popularity over the last few years and is now
becoming recognized by development shops from large consulting
firms through small software houses. Some of the companies that are
using XP include DaimlerChrysler, First Union National Bank, and
Ford Motor Company.

4. |  Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 25-OCT-2002 Insert Date: 20-MAR-2003 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Testing Extreme Programming The rapid rise in popularity of Extreme Programming (XP) has put
the practice of software testing squarely in the spotlight of
application development. At one time, testing was a neglected
practice, a highly specialized activity that came as an
afterthought as complex, code-intensive projects were rushed to
completion. But in today's world of escalating quality
expectations, testing is a key component of the development
process.
XP accelerates testing by demanding its complete integration
with development. This in turn has pushed software professionals to
rethink their traditional attitudes...

5. |  Extreme Programming Perspectives By: Michele Marchesi; Giancarlo Succi; Don Wells; Laurie Williams Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 26-AUG-2002 Insert Date: 25-FEB-2003 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Extreme Programming Perspectives Extreme Programming (XP) has been established as a significant
departure from traditional software development methods. The
success of the XP 2001 and XP Universe 2001 conferences is no
surprise; some of the brightest minds in software engineering
gathered at these venues to discuss the discipline that is XP.
These conferences showcase the continuously changing face of XP.
Common programming practices will never be the same, and developers
and business people alike need to bear this fact in mind as they
plan for the future.
Inspired by the techniques and challenges explored at...

6. |  Questioning Extreme Programming By: Pete McBreen Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 19-JUL-2002 Insert Date: 26-NOV-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Questioning Extreme Programming Extreme Programming (XP) has been the subject of heated debate
since its arrival on the programming scene in
1998—understandably so, as it contradicts many traditional
software development beliefs. We¿ve heard success stories
about sweeping changes made to organizations as a result of XP.
We’ve read books about how this approach can work for our
teams. However, are there times when XP isn’t appropriate?
There are certainly instances when making the leap to XP could
potentially jeopardize a whole project. What’s missing from
all of this rhetoric? Witness Pete McBreen, software...

feedback
Constant integration and automated testing that insures clean
code and robust performance
These are some of the many benefits of Extreme Programming (XP),
a software development approach especially geared for smaller teams

8. |  Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 16-OCT-2000 Insert Date: 25-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Planning Extreme Programming
"XP is the most important movement in our field today. I
predict that it will be as essential to the present generation as
the S.E.I. and its Capability Maturity Model were to the
last."
--From the foreword by Tom DeMarco
The hallmarks of Extreme Programming--constant integration and
automated testing, frequent small releases that incorporate
continual customer feedback, and a teamwork approach--make it an
exceptionally flexible and effective approach to software
development. Once considered radical, Extreme Programming (XP) is
rapidly becoming recognized as an approach...

9. |  By: Kent Beck Publisher: Addison-Wesley Professional Publication Date: 05-OCT-1999 Insert Date: 25-SEP-2002 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Extreme Programming Explained Software development projects can be fun, productive, and even
daring. Yet they can consistently deliver value to a business and
remain under control.
Extreme Programming (XP) was conceived and developed to address
the specific needs of software development conducted by small teams
in the face of vague and changing requirements. This new
lightweight methodology challenges many conventional tenets,
including the long-held assumption that the cost of changing a
piece of software necessarily rises dramatically over the course of
time. XP recognizes that projects have to work to achieve...
