About the session

In this case study, I'll tell you the story of how giffgaff moved from a painful monolith released every few weeks, to doing over 15,000 releases a year.

I'll explain how we use Extreme Programming practices (most notably TDD, pair programming) to achieve technical excellence and use it as a business advantage that allows us to safely move fast, experiment, gather quick feedback and iterate.

Participant Takeaways:

  • How to encourage and use Extreme Programming practices (TDD, pair programming) to safely move fast
  • Using microservices and microfrontends to break dependencies
  • Using Team Topologies to organise teams

Themes:
Technical Excellence, Extreme Programming, Team Topologies
