demystifying roles in scrum team - agile tour 2013 kaunas

Scrum recognizes no titles for Development Team members other than Developer, regardless of the work being performed by the person; there are no exceptions to this rule. What does that mean? Should everyone write code? What about testers, designers, architects or data-warehouse specialists? Should every Scrum Team get one person per such role? What if potentially releasable Increment of “Done” product cannot bet achieved without infrastructure design? How does IT come to the picture? Who is responsible for architecture of components and solution (especially when multiple teams work on them)? When North Korea is going to stop their madness? All questions but last will be revisited on presentation by SimonasTRANSCRIPT
