  Agile has matured to the point of mainstream success. Even large companies have discovered that it helps them build better quality software faster. But the agile practices that are mainstream today have been around for a long time. What is the next wave of innovation in the Agile world going to bring?
  Agile software development works because of feedback loops, and to make it better (or repair what’s broken), you identify missing feedback loops, or replace broken ones. This talk uncovers two feedback loops missing from most projects. The first uses Behavior Driven Development & Cucumber to incorporate business analysts, testers, subject matter experts, and developers on one platform for requirements definition and verification. The other anaemic feedback loop in many organisations involves the last mile to production: you have error prone, horrific manual releases that everyone hates. Continuous Delivery delivers proven techniques and tools to make “Done” better.
