Druplicon’s Fables

Stories of mistakes, morals, and doing it right

@deviantintegral

About your storyteller

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...

Bolt vom Bergblick, Angus Mak, stolen from Yammer

@deviantintegral

Sad dog :(

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...(not so long ago)

@deviantintegral

<html>

@deviantintegral

• Content types

• Fields

• Editing forms

• User accounts

• Choose your own destiny

@deviantintegral

Milky Way Arch by Bruno Gilli/ESO

@deviantintegral

• A library of modules with prebuilt functionality

• For those who don’t code

• Modules combine to create business value

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

A list of hot events

@deviantintegral

A photo carousel for each event!

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

A view for every day

@deviantintegral

A content type for every week

@deviantintegral

Comments on ALL THE THINGS!

@deviantintegral

Nothing done

@deviantintegral

The Feature and its Reflection

@deviantintegral

With Drupal, it’s really easy to get to

90%

@deviantintegral

Technologists like to use the new shiny

@deviantintegral

“There’s a module for that”

@deviantintegral

(I can write a module for that)

@deviantintegral

If you always chase what’s hot in the Drupal community, you’ll leave your own work behind and end up with nothing.

@deviantintegral

The End

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...

@deviantintegral

#omnomnom

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...(or last year, in internet time)

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

We’re making a great website

@deviantintegral

Hey, look!Progress.

@deviantintegral

Ready to launch?

@deviantintegral

Add some spice?

@deviantintegral

Pretty soon...

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

It’s easy to rag on project managers

@deviantintegral

The blinders of doacracy

@deviantintegral

Project Management isn’t just a line item

@deviantintegral

Ticket Soup

@deviantintegral

An effective project manager enables positive collaboration by identifying actionable units of work and pairing them with team members who have the needed skills.

They bring the stone to the soup.

@deviantintegral

The End

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...(probably happened last week)

@deviantintegral

<< 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 >><< 1 2 3 >>

@deviantintegral

Wait, a spec?

@deviantintegral

“As a user...

@deviantintegral

... browsing with an iPhone”

@deviantintegral

“As a user...

@deviantintegral

... I want to be engaged with our

brand”

@deviantintegral

“As a user...

@deviantintegral

... I want to share with one click”

@deviantintegral

*double take*

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

Seek out the real end user

@deviantintegral

The Client in the User’s Skin

@deviantintegral

Don’t let your client pretend to be the user. Don’t let the user in user stories mean “I” or “me”. Your words will inevitably give you away.

@deviantintegral

The End

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...(every day)

@deviantintegral

#awesome

@deviantintegral

Goals for ALL MOST THE THINGS

@deviantintegral

$(not the PHP or jQuery $)

@deviantintegral

Lets doooo eeeeeeeit

@deviantintegral

XX

@deviantintegral

Onward and upward!

@deviantintegral

Squeaky Wheel

@deviantintegral

XX

XX

@deviantintegral

while (1) defects++;

@deviantintegral

Through sprint 3...

@deviantintegral

Through sprint 9...

@deviantintegral

Through sprint Tornado Man...

@deviantintegral

We have a complete site...

@deviantintegral

...if you followed the expected path.

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

It’s easy to rag on our testers

@deviantintegral

wrong direction

@deviantintegral

The QA Tester and the Other Devs

@deviantintegral

Testers ensure we have to acknowledge

reality

@deviantintegral

Quality assurance is our best guard against software decay and ruin, even when it feels like it impedes progress towards our goals. We had best heed their advice.

@deviantintegral

The End

@deviantintegral

Once upon a time...

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

CMS is an acronym for “slow”

@deviantintegral

Impossible advantage

@deviantintegral

I see what you did there...

@deviantintegral

Forced into a tough situation

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

Subscribe me to your list

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

Change the rules

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

@deviantintegral

The Drupal community lets us change the rules. What was impossible becomes possible, probable, and before you know it, done.

@deviantintegral

And they lived happily ever after

Thank you!
