About the Presentation

In his 2010 book Software Engineering Best Practices, Capers Jones identifies the Team Software Process (TSP) as one of the most effective practices for software developers. This presentation briefly describes training and introduction of TSP practices, including the Personal SoftwareProcess (PSP), the results and benefits potentials inherent in the methods, and the common use of TSP methods in combination with other popular practices, including Agile (Scrum, TDD, XP), architecture, secure coding, RUP, Six Sigma, and CMMI.
