Put John Brewer's Extreme Programming (XP) expertise to work for your team.

Training

Single or multi-day workshops in XP tailored to your organization's needs. Cover all the practices, or just the ones your team needs to focus on.

The Micro XP exercise. Experience a scale model of an entire XP project in a single afternoon.

Let John Brewer coach your team to help them adopt and maintain the XP practices. Typical coach duties include:

Introducing pair programming skills by pairing with team members. Quietly tracking pairings that take place to ensure team members are pairing with everyone.
Lending expertise to the team as they start using test-first development, simple design, and refactoring.
Tracking the team's overall process, and gently reminding the team when it strays from the agreed-upon process.

Use John Brewer's expertise to help your organization adopt XP.

Enhance team communication by setting up a Wiki system for your workgroup.
Track unit test compliance by setting up CruiseControl for continuous integration testing.

John Brewer is also available to do contract software development. We use XP practices to ensure the highest-value return for the lowest risk.
