Here’s the last part in my series on Scaled [Agile](https://www.nfocus.co.uk/expertise/devops-agile-testing-services/) Framework. In this last part, I cover a range of topics including Inspect and Adapt, Measuring Flow and other useful principles to consider. If you haven’t read the first two parts, do check out [part 1](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/a-real-world-intro-to-safe-scaled-agile-framework) and [part 2](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/a-real-world-intro-to-safe-part-2) before reading on. ![Project life cycle, successful project management, stages of project completion concept. ](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/SAFe_Part%203.jpg?width=942&name=SAFe_Part%203.jpg) **Inspect and Adapt** As part of our PI cycle we also have an Inspect and Adapt session in every increment. Teams and Stakeholders attend this session and it’s timeboxed to 3 or 4 hours. There are 3 main parts to this: **1.** **The PI System demo** – Hands-on or video demos to reflect on what we have achieved and gain any feedback from anyone at the session. **2. Quantitative Measurement** – How many stories did we deliver, how many points does this equate to, SLAs / KPIs met, is our Sprint Velocity still valid or do we need to change this? **3. Problem-solving workshop** – How can we improve, what is impacting velocity and how can we remove impediments? **Other Useful Principles** **WIP Limits** – Kanban uses Work in Progress limits to increase flow. We don’t want everything hitting test in the last 2 days of a sprint so if we have hit the WIP limit of the number of stories or tasks ‘In Progress’ or ‘In Review’, then team members should not start a new ticket until this flow has been moved on (this could be nudging people to perform code reviews or testing stories / tasks). WIP Limits can also be minimum or maximum values and can serve as buffers in controlling flow, some steps have no WIP limits applied. ![Visualisation: Work Flow, Work in Progress Limitations & Flow Improvements. ](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/hubfs/image-png-Nov-24-2020-11-19-56-03-AM.png) Keeping batch sizes small improves flow and reduces bottlenecks in the sprint cycle. **CALMR [DevOps](https://www.nfocus.co.uk/software-testing/devops-agile-test-automation/)** **C**ulture – Establish a shared responsibility culture for development, deployment and operations. **A**utomation – Automate the Continuous Delivery Pipeline. **L**ean Flow – Keep batch sizes small, limit WIP and provide visibility at all stages. **M**easurement – Measure the flow through the CD / CI pipeline and implement full stack telemetry where possible. **R**ecovery – Architect to enable low-risk releases with fast recovery and fix forward approach to bugs. **Measuring Flow** During a sprint cycle a ‘Burn Up’ chart is preferred as opposed to the usual ‘Burn Down’ chart. ![Sprint Cycle / ‘Burn Up’ Chart](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/hubfs/image-png-Nov-24-2020-11-21-57-41-AM.png) **CFD – Cumulative Flow Diagram** These can be very useful for understanding WIP lead time or how long it is taking for a sprint item to progress from ‘In Progress’ to ‘Done’. This will also highlight any areas of improvement in terms of Flow. ![CFD – Cumulative Flow Diagram](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/hubfs/image-png-Nov-24-2020-11-22-19-20-AM.png) **Further Information** [https://www.scaledagile.com/](https://www.scaledagile.com/) [![nFocus SDET Academy ](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/650608/fb7bf0cb-9a0d-46ce-b2fe-d5d07018f97b.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/650608/fb7bf0cb-9a0d-46ce-b2fe-d5d07018f97b) Topics: [Agile,](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/topic/agile), [Software Testing](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/topic/software-testing), [DevOps and Testing](https://blog.nfocus.co.uk/topic/devops-and-testing) ### nFocus Blog Welcome to the nFocus software testing blog.
