Oracle Development TodayA painful process: case study

Traditional Oracle development challenges the agile environment.

Oracle Development TodayThe “Risk” of online development

Age-old problems:Live DB development = breaking changesImpact analysis is nonexistentCannot refactor code or objectsLittle or no unit testing!Poor source controlBuilding change scripts: Dev > Test > ProdDon’t even think about reverting!

To Be Agile…

In our development projects, we must have:

To be agile, we must be able to adapt in order to meet customer’s needs

CONTROL FLEXIBILITY CONSISTENCYControlling the environment establishes the foundation

Flexible processes allow you to respond to change

Consistency in testing and the environment result in quality

Database Development in Visual Studio 2010

“Offline” database developmentProject-based, part of your solutionAutomatic impact analysisNo more manual change scriptsSource control becomes the new “master”Application and DBMS code in syncImproved project visibility

ControlEstablish a Foundation

Good change management promotes flexibility and supports consistent quality

Control schema objects, not change scriptsAllow application developers to be innovativeQuickly compare the environment

Demo: Control

Create your first Oracle project Add the project to Team Foundation Server Set up version control

FlexibilityRespond to Change

We must provide the freedom to move quickly and the flexibility to try new things

Respond to changing requirementsCustomer & value drivenFoster innovation

Principles of the Agile Manifesto:

“Welcome changing requirements, even late in

development. Agile processes harness change for

the customer's competitive advantage.”

Demo: Flexibility

Declarative development Impact Analysis Refactoring Schema Compare

ConsistencyDeliver Quality, Every Time

Automate processes for repeatability and consistent quality

Application & DMBS code should be tested in the same harnessTest environment should be consistentAutomated build processAutomated unit testing

Principles of the Agile Manifesto:

“Working software is the primary measure of progress.”

“Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and

continuous delivery of valuable software.”
