.ExtremeProgramming

All Paratroopers software is created using "XP"

.XP?

We apply Extreme Programming to our software development workflow to enhance collaboration, improve code quality, and deliver reliable software efficiently. Here is what we implement in practice:

Pair Programming: ✅
Test-Driven Development (TDD): 🔄*
Continuous Integration: 🔴🟢
Small Releases/incremental improvements: ✅
Customer Collaboration:
Your feedback directly influences our development priorities and ensures we are building software that aligns with *the requirements.
Sustainable Pace:
We maintain high productivity and morale among our team members.
Refactoring:
We regularly improve the code’s structure and readability without changing its behavior. So it remains maintainable.
Collective Code Ownership:
Everyone on our team can work on any part of the codebase. This encourages responsibility and prevents bottlenecks, as knowledge and expertise are shared across the team.

By adhering to these practices, Paratroopers ensures the delivery of high-quality software that meets customer needs while maintaining a healthy and collaborative work environment for our team.
