Abstract

The term Water-Scrum-Fall was coined by West et al. in 2011 to describe a hybrid methodology which is a by-product of attempting to introduce Scrum into an organisation which usually operates with a Waterfall Methodology. Water ScrumFall typically appears in an organisation which had been using the Waterfall Methodology and in which a development team attempts to migrate to Scrum (or some other Agile Methodology). In such a hybrid, the first few phases (such as feasibility studies, funding exercises, requirements gathering, etc) are executed using a Waterfall Methodology. Then the development and possiby testing phases are executed using Scrum and are broken up into small sprints. The actual deployment, however, is then executed using again the Waterfall Methodology. This paper looks at a specific project in a South African listed company in which the development team implemented Scrum for the development phase and a large portion of the testing phase. This hybrid methodology was not necessary successful. This paper describes five of the lessons learned using Water-Scrum-Fall.
南非利用水-瀑布的五个经验教训
Water-Scrum-Fall这个术语是由West等人在2011年创造的,用来描述一种混合方法,这是试图将Scrum引入通常使用瀑布方法的组织的副产品。Water ScrumFall通常出现在使用瀑布方法的组织中,并且开发团队试图迁移到Scrum(或其他敏捷方法)。在这样的混合项目中,前几个阶段(如可行性研究、融资练习、需求收集等)是使用瀑布方法执行的。然后使用Scrum执行开发和可能的测试阶段,并将其分解为小的sprint。然而,实际的部署将再次使用瀑布方法执行。本文着眼于一家南非上市公司的特定项目,在该项目中,开发团队在开发阶段和大部分测试阶段实施了Scrum。这种混合方法不一定成功。本文描述了使用Water-Scrum-Fall获得的五个经验教训。
