And Still More XP Practices
Continuous Integration
Code integrated and tested every few hours
Only 100% passing of integrated testing acceptable
If 100% not achievable, new code corrected or discarded
40-hour Week
Development team must be fresh to work at peak efficiency
Occasional deviations from normal hours may be required,
BUT regular deviations indicate other troubles
On-site Customer
Final customer/user part of development team (on site)
Customer identifies features, writes tests, sets priorities
Coding Standards
No duplicate code (for simplicity)
Styles set by group or leadership (to avoid contention and time-consuming discussions)
