Synopsis: Over the past several years the Agile methodology has taken the development community by storm. With the release of their updated software development products in early 2010, Microsoft created a series of tools, patterns, and practices, which make their platform ideal for Agile development. The new scrum template along with Team Foundation Servers’ easy customization makes it a strong fit for any organization moving to or involved in such a process. We’ll step through the new template, talk about the scrum framework, and discuss how to make it fit an organization’s needs.
