I found this book to be well written and it explains the life cycle of modern application development very well.
|
|
If you are a developer who has worked in any decent software houses you will likely find the information
|
|
in this book very familiar and not of interest.
|
|
|
|
This book does cover, in detail, the process of working with a client and developing an application based on the client's
|
|
requirements in addition to how to go about designing, testing and reporting bugs in the process. It also includes some amusing
|
|
stories on how not to do things and failed projects the developer has walked into.
|
|
|
|
I was anticipating a lot more information about the actual release process. As a developer who has written
|
|
many web and desktop applications I was hoping for more information about the actual selling of apps and what
|
|
I need to know about any pitfalls or things you may need to be aware of.
|
|
|
|
If you are a new or self-taught developer, or if you have no development experience and want to develop an application,
|
|
then this book is highly recommended and should help you avoid common mistakes.
