Why isn't everyone using Extreme Programming (XP) if it's so effective? In this video, David Scott Bernstein dives into the underutilization of XP despite its proven success. Drawing on insights from hundreds of developers, David explains how XP's practices—like emerging designs, encapsulation, and testdriven development—lead to flexible, highquality software. Discover why agile software must be changeable and verifiable, and learn the essential practices that make this possible. If you're curious about the deeper aspects of agile development and why XP remains a powerful but overlooked methodology, this video is for you.
