In the #MWNN you are free to choose whichever processes you feel will help your team succeed. Like Tuco does to assemble his perfect gun. To me this extremely light weight methodology, best fits the agile manifesto's number one value "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools". 7/7

Tuco assembles his perfect gun from multiple other guns.

I find this about as useful as medieval monks arguing about how many angels can do the Mambo No.5 on the head of a pin. 6/n

This was tricky until I started using a "shoring" technique. In construction they will sometimes use a temporary support apparatus called "shoring" while they build in the long term support beams.

When you delete a test that is not working you have to make sure that there is still some test that covers the code. You can do this with a code coverage tool or do what's called the Poor man's code coverage. Break the code and see what tests failed.
