Inspect and Adapt

How should you spend your always-limited testing resources? Is one part of the product more important to test than another? Construx's Steve Tockey [https://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/steve-tockey/] and Earl Beede [http://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/earl-beede/] join host Mark Griffin [http://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/mark-griffin/] in looking at one approach to answering those questions: risk-based testing. Steve and Earl look at how to do risk-based testing along with its pros and cons.

In an earlier webinar, Construx's Earl Beede [https://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/earl-beede/] took on many organizations that create product visions with phrases like, be the world's best ‘x’ or dazzle our customers. Not bad ideas but pretty much worthless in helping you make day-to-day decisions on what work is the most important for your business. This is a follow-up, with Earl and Mark Griffin [https://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/mark-griffin/] delving a bit deeper into some of the questions that came up during the webinar.

Construx welcomes Onorio Catenacci [https://www.linkedin.com/in/onoriocatenacci] to the microphone to ask questions about software development that continue to puzzle him and perhaps to see whether Construx has the answers. Join Contrux's Mark Griffin [https://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/mark-griffin/] and Steve Tockey [https://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/steve-tockey/] to see if they can give sound, helpful, and actionable answers to Onorio's questions—and find out whether Onorio can stump Construx!

Construx's Jenny Stuart is retiring from the software industry, and we will miss her! In this podcast, Jenny Stuart looks back on her three decades in the software industry and shares stories and wins from her long career. Joining Jenny are three of her Construx work companions for the last 20 years, Mark Griffin, Steve Tockey, and Earl Beede.

Why do software gurus keep talking about the Cynefin Framework? What is it? How is it even pronounced? In this episode of Inspect & Adapt, Construx puts many brains on the topic with Mark Griffin [http://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/mark-griffin/], Jenny Stuart [http://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/jenny-stuart/], Steve Tockey [https://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/steve-tockey/], and Earl Beede [http://www.construx.com/about-us/our-team/earl-beede/] making the link between Cynefin and doing actual software development work. They cover where Cynefin is best applied and where this sense-making system just doesn't make sense.
