- Just as a velocity is measured in points a capacity is measured in hours.
- A Program Increment (PI) Plan in SAFe is basically like the length of a sprint in Scrum. This also has the terms PDCA for Plan, Do, Check, Adjust wherein the Adjust step encompases I&A (Inspect and Adapt) and Agile Release Train (ART) which seems to be ongoing development cranking out deliverables. The same link above also suggests in SAFe there is typically a Innovation and Planning (IP) Iteration after perhaps four consecutive PI interations.
- Stories should be demonstrable and end-to-end functionality as a term suggests this.
- The INVEST model stands for Independent, Negotiable, Valuable, Estimate-able, Small, Testable and per Bill Wake a good Product Backlog Item or PBI has these qualities.
- When we "track progress" we have a burndown chart.
- The impediments are anything slowing down a team.
- Work-In-Process (WIP) limits have to do with breaking stories out into swimlanes so others can see at a glance how a story is progressing.
- Definition of Done (DoD) is what it sounds like and varies. This has a done/done/done/done definition wherein the four dones are coded, verified (unit tested), validated (product owner approves), and production ready.
- RTE stands for Release Train Engineer and this guy reports to a product owner and oversees the scrum masters leading various scrums.
- To jump from "planning to designing to coding to testing to finishing" per Vin D'Amico here is swarming.
- What is more, ephemeral the English language word means lasting for a short time while holistic the English language word suggests that wherein the whole is more important than the pieces.
