As promised, here are the slides from my Real World Scrum with TFS2018 and Azure DevOps talk at VSLive Chicago 2018.

Real World Scrum with Team Foundation Server 2018 & Azure DevOps (aka. Visual Studio Team Services)

You’ve got Team Foundation Server 2018 or Azure DevOps and you’re looking to do Scrum.  Ok.  Great.  Now what does that mean?  What does TFS2018 or Azure DevOps actually do to help your Scrum team(s) run more efficiently?  If I’m the Scrum Master, what should I be coaching my team to do?  What can you do to help get to high-quality, “done”, working software faster?  How does TFS make anything in Scrum easier?

In this session, Ben will address these from the perspective of a technically-minded Scrum Master.  He’ll show you how to address four of the main pieces of running a Scrum project using TFS2018 or Azure DevOps: Stakeholder Interaction, Planning & Execution, Testing, and streamlining the Definition of Done (DoD).  Along the way there will be plenty of talk about work item management, QA testing, feedback management, and automated builds.
