methodology - Successful projects using agile methods? -


I have been interested in late tight methods and got prescriptions and minute details for many practices. Still, I remember run-to-the-full spikes after some debugging and minimum testing before my best projects were alive.

I'm asking myself, did Flickr use the agile method? Does Facebook Practice TDD? Did Gmail make a 25-minute span with a 5-minute dream?

In other words, before I listen to all the publicity and jumped into the manual, I get the evidence that this path can be successful in a successful project in a successful company?

Of course, I am asking this because I want to read the answer, not because I want to dismiss the argument.

This is a successful project for me:

  • After some went live
  • Deliver new functionality to the CMS and server behind the weekly site - usually with deployment every week or so.
  • All were done with extreme programming topics.
  • Weekly demo to the customer to go with weekly iterations.

Here's another tight project (this is also strictly done with XP), this is also a big success:

I Two other successful XP projects have worked on:

  • Banking Clean and distribution of fixed income data in investment bank sites in NY, London, Paris and Tokyo A system for I believe that there was a production event throughout the whole project in only a few years.
  • Mobile data A system for configuring mobile phones and PDAs for mobile networks and handset makers We have created core product in a large number of years and three sites around the world But coordinated work on Customers using all extreme programming are some of the biggest companies in the mobile business. Our application has provided global support for some of these clients.

    • I will not really go back to the old ways of working - nor do I sponsor projects for those customers. I mentioned above.

    sql - dynamically varied number of conditions in the 'where' statement using LINQ -

    I am using my first project LINQ (in mvc), so maybe there's something very simple that I remember. However, a day of searching and experimenting does not work, so it works. I am trying to write a LINQ query (Linux to SQL) in which in many cases where the statement is different from an OR or an AND. We do not know how many conditions are going in the query till runtime. This search is for filter control, where the user can choose multiple criteria for filtering. Select from table where table.col = 1 or table.col = 2 or table.col = 7 .... 'Other number of conditions Before I just create the SQL query as a string, while looping over all the situations. However, it seems that there should be a good way to do this in LINQ. I tried to use Expression trees, but they had a second thought for this moment on my head, where the lambda function was to be executed inside the statement such as: values ​​for matchingRows = matchingRows for each value Where (function (row) row.c...

    asp.net mvc - Dynamically Generated Ajax.BeginForm -

    I have a problem with ASP.NET MVC Ajax forms. I generate many Ajax form in a table such as: & Lt; Input type = "submit" name = "activity" value = "add activity" / & gt; & Lt;%}% & gt; & Lt; / TD & gt; & Lt; / TR & gt; & Lt;%}% & gt; So far so good. When I post one of those forms, it gives a partial view in a div, and in this new partial view a new Ajax Beginnform (which is not in Genesis form) This second Ajax Beginnorf is exactly like the ones I got on the table, but when I post it, I do not get the "Ajax Post", but a normal post that sends me to a new page, I do not know whether the two Ajax forms What is the reason for the difference between, why is it the "dynamically generated" Ajax form behaves like a normal HTML form? By the way, I know that I can do it in different ways using javascript, but I would like to understand whether it can only be done using MVC helplars and Ajax lib...
