I am definitely stealing this term and spreading it.

"If you want to do Continuous Delivery, you need to do Continuous 
Integration. And if you want to do Continuous Integration, you need to 
do Continuous Coding."

Memorable.  Also true.

                          &gt; Being in the Scrum camp more than XP, in
                          every CSM I overview in detail TDD, CI,
                          Pairing, Mobbing and Swarming. Also explain
                          that you have to look at XP,  not Scrum for

                          I wish we knew how many CSTs do that. I think
                          what we do know is that even that apparently
                          doesn't work, as your own story below tells.<br>
                          &gt; <br>
                          &gt; I am at a loss on how to sell these ideas
                          though. At a client who I started working with
                          Scrum in 2010 I have trained most the staff on
                          Scrum. They have over 1000 developers. We sold
                          a total of 2 XP/TDD immersion courses with a
                          well known XP Coach after strenuous internal
                          marketing from HR and finally a Dev Sr Mgr
                          assigning people to the classes. This same
                          company spends millions per year on dev
                          training and regularly sell out courses on
                          Swift, C++, python, r, react, vmware, AWS,
                          Azure, tensorflow etc. etc. Budget isn't the
                          issue, demand for XP practices training is the
                          struggle.<br>
                          &gt; <br>
                          &gt; So in 20 years we still do not have the
                          business case we need to convince developers
                          to widely adopt and spread these ideas.<br>
                          <br>
                          It's a puzzlement. I've been talking with
                          Howard Sublett (Scrum Alliance Chief Product
                          Owner, for those who don't know) about the
                          developer problem. He's interested, and I
                          think he'd put some money behind it, but I'm
                          at a loss as to how to effectively help. It's
