  • T'was Agile - A Holiday Treat

    Friday, December 18, 2009 by V. Lee Henson CST
    Twas the night before code drop and all through the land
    Not a person was coding, not even one hand

    The code was all tested and checked in with care
    Even the documentation was completed and there

    The PMO Director & VP of Dev were nestled all warm and snug in their beds
    While visions of bonuses danced in their heads

    Joe closed his laptop and Sue hit the sack
    Knowing morning was near and they needed the nap

    When from my pocket there arose such a clatter
    I reached for my iPhone to see what was the matter

    To the office I flew like a Senior VP
    Tore open my briefcase and fired up the PC

    When what in my unsettled eyes might appear
    But an incomplete test case as I trembled in fear

    I regained my senses and checked out the code
    Reviewed the regression and distributed the load

    It passed all the tests now, my mind was at ease
    Knowing that many would certainly be pleased

    That I put forth such effort on a cold chilly night
    To re-sync our code and ensure all was right

    Soon morning approached and I knew not to worry
    As none of the testing was crammed in a hurry

    It makes my heart filled with holiday cheer
    To know Agile methods make everything clear

    As the holidays are with us and our hearts fill with joy
    Help us all to remember the framework we enjoy

    On XP, on Scrum, On Kanban & Lean,
    On DSDM, On AgileUP, On Crystal Extreme

    To the ends of the project, no greater joy shall we call
    Than celebrate, celebrate, celebrate all

    As we conclude the current project and realign our sites
    Happy Holidays to all and succeed with Agile Might!
