Programmers are a bit like cats:
Intelligent, strong-willed, opinionated, independent, and often worshiped by the net.
What is a pragmatic team?
A pragmatic team is small, under 10-12 or so members. Members come and go rarely, everyone knows everyone well, trusts each other, and depends on each other.

What is part of the Pragmatic Starter Kit?
- Version Control
- Regression Testing
- Full Automation
