Abstract
Extreme Programming is not just for the lucky few projects where applications are built from scratch. Learn how XP’s practices can be brought to bear on a poorly designed and untested legacy code base in need of salvation. The audience will operate on a J2EE version of the famous “Bowling Score” application, developed under a waterfall methodology and set within a living environment populated with convincingly nervous clients.
