A state-of-the-art process for producing PL/I programs on punchcards. If you can master PSP/TSP, you will be more effective than 99% of all software developers at filling out forms and producing status reports. A shockingly wasteful approach to quality management.

I can’t understand how anyone could apply TSP or PSP and actually get any work done. My college professor used this book as well as PSP and let me say that it has no use in the real world. Filling out forms and counting lines of code only wastes the developer’s time. Any manager that uses this book as a model for developing software has no clue about what it takes to develop software that meets the customer’s expectations, is well designed and well tested. Any process that emphasizes lines of code as a useful metric for making estimations is not worth the paper it is written on.

Excelente obra que nos muestra la forma en como sacar provecho de los equipos de trabajo en el desarrollo de proyectos de software. Felicito al Sr. Watts. S. Humprey por su visión en el tema.

My software team used the TSP for developing a 3 release Java application over 12 weeks. There is a stiff learning curve, but once you learn it, you can quickly realize the results. This book takes the guesswork out of developing software. If you have a dedicated team that will take the time to learn it, you will be very happy with the results.

I’ve been involved with many different projects in a team environment. This book contains some of the best and most respected procedures to complete a team project. I’ve used these methods and they work well! The principles outlined in this book apply to more than just software engineering. Take a look! You’ll be glad you did!
