Software is fast becoming the differentiator for manufacturers of medical devices. The rewards available from software innovation are balanced by the risks and challenges of FDA regulation, stringent quality requirements, market pressures, and significant complexity. Balancing these competing interests requires tailored application lifecycle management that addresses the unique needs of medical devices companies. This video of the MKS Solution for Medical Devices demonstrates the role that MKS Integrity can play in overcoming these challenges, by providing an application lifecycle management (ALM) platform for embedded software engineering, that streamlines FDA compliance …

Behavior-Driven Development is more than a technique for creating and organizing unit tests. It is also a wonderful way to communicate with customers and users about the software being created. This video demonstrates some techniques and tools you can use to start delivering software with BDD. : Using Behavior-Driven Development frameworks, this session explores ways to create software starting with solid Agile requirements, moving all the way through automated testing. We use .NET in C# and Visual Studio ALM, although none of these exact tools are required to accomplish the …

This short tutorial presents the class diagrams of the Unified Modeling Language (UML). Class diagrams represent classes. Private members of the class are hidden. Each class specifies a public interface. Other objects can make calls into public methods.

Agile is all about closing the gap between business and software development. Agile teams work closely with a Product Owner who prioritizes user stories on their business value. So how does a team make sure they don’t lose sight of “non-functional requirements”? Are user stories of any use to make infrastructure more visible in the product backlog? This talk is based on coaching experiences with many agile teams. Come and hear how these teams attempted to resolve these concerns. Find out about patterns and anti-patterns that apply to non-functional requirements …

This video demonstrates an example of agile requirements traceability. We discuss an example user story and show how detailed requirements captured as test tables can be used to build executable specifications and aid the design process. Finally we wrap up by a brief example of how we would track the progress of multiple user stories across our scrum or kanban wall.
