SCRUM is an agile development process with an emphasis on creating working software in 'sprints' that typically last 2-4 weeks. I've implemented SCRUM in several organizations and my experience can help your team to gain the most from the adopting the SCRUM process.
"Continuous Integration is a software development practice where members of a team integrate their work frequently, usually each person integrates at least daily - leading to multiple integrations per day. Each integration is verified by an automated build (including test) to detect integration errors as quickly as possible. Many teams find that this approach leads to significantly reduced integration problems and allows a team to develop cohesive software more rapidly " Martin Fowler.com
Nothing is worse then having your software crash in your customers hands. You need to get the problem fixed, and your team doesn't have the critical information they need to find the problem.
Let me help you implement solutions that will get your team the information they need to quickly find and fix crashes. Better yet, it will help your QA team to find crashes during development.
