• 6.  Data Analysis with Agile Project Management
  5m 38s
  In this video, you’ll learn some Key Agile Software Development Indicators or KPIs. KPIs in Agile are focused on delivering value more efficiently to the customer. This is done by improving things like strategic planning effectiveness, evaluating things like code quality and value achieved, and improving the Agile operational process in general. Common Agile KPIs include velocity, the sprint and release burndown, cycle time, the cumulative flow, and efficiency charts, among others. FREE ACCESS
• 7.  Continuous Development and Delivery
  6m 49s
  In this video, you’ll learn that Agile is a process that encourages regular frequent software releases. The standard way to achieve this is with the practice of Continuous Delivery, which is the automation of the delivery process. Continuous delivery only works when code is always ready to release. With continuous delivery, once the main code branch has been tested, it's immediately deliverable. Continuous delivery or CD is an extension of continuous integration or CI. FREE ACCESS
• 8.  Key Agile Metrics
  9m 50s
  In this video, you’ll learn some common Agile metrics via their charts. You’ll look at the details of each chart. You’ll learn more about Velocity, Sprint Burndown, Epic Burndown, Release Burndown, and Cumulative Flow. Velocity is a measure of how many story points a team can do in a sprint. Onscreen, you’ll see a chart that measures this. For each sprint, there are two bars shown on the Velocity bar chart. FREE ACCESS
