    Practising Best Practises in Your Software Development Process


    (Page 1 of 7 )

    Software practices. Do you know what they are? Do you employ them in your everyday development? Whether you do or you don't, Simon outlines the practices needed to achieve a development process model.

    Why is so much software developed chaotically? Why are best practises ignored? In this article, I first explain the traditional view of why you need a software development process. This is, in itself, no big surprise. I therefore question why so much software is still developed chaotically, either without a process or with disregard to best practises. I suggest the Knowing-Doing Gap as a possible cause.
