Assessing Agile Quality Practices with QPAM

Co-author Selena Delesie

The book provides a deeper view of what it means to truly deliver successfully in an agile way. Janet and Selena introduce a quality practices assessment model (QPAM) that considers dimensions and quality aspects for behaviors and practices within teams and organizations. Consultants, coaches, managers, and even team members learn what high quality looks like for feedback loops, testing, code quality, culture, and more.

The reader is invited to dig deep to reflect on the quality of their products as well as the quality of a team’s agile processes and those of the entire organization. The model enables teams to assess where they are, and what practices they may want to improve.
