We’re so pleased to having teamed up with Dave Farley, author of “Continuous Delivery” and frequent GOTO Conferences speaker, for a monthly video series featuring ideas about continuous delivery, DevOps, test-driven development, BDD, software engineering and software development in general. Find plenty more from Dave on his @ContinuousDelivery channel. Dave Farley - Continuous Delivery & DevOps Pioneer, Award-winning Author, Founder & Director of Continuous Delivery Ltd. RESOURCES Dave ABSTRACT Are you a rockstar developer, or do you want to be? Is being a rockstar a good idea or a bad one? What does it take to do great work in software development, does it take rockstar developers or just good habits? The idea of the developer rockstar is mostly a creation of the recruitment industry to appeal to the best developers, but in reality, this is not a great model for delivering great software and comes with lots of problems. It also goes against what Google and others have found about what it takes to create great software. In this episode Dave Farley, author of “Continuous Delivery” and “Modern Software Engineering” unpicks the idea of “Rockstar developers” and compares them to how effective, high-performing, teams work.
