Surprisingly, at least for me, i don't see here Robert C. Martin, Kent Beck or Alan Key...

Maybe they are old, and not the bussiness-succesfull-type but they are still Gods for me in the academic side. They can clarify a lot of things most people think they understood, or worst, i tought i understood.

Why? For me? Because the power they have modeling, the experience they accumulated in a lot of areas, how they move checking metrics and not only by what they feel or their instinct. And of course, because of the power of their ideas which made them famous.

You dont have to agree them 100% of the time. Of course not. But when you don't agree, check that twice, and check again after some years of earning knowledge and experience too. They deserve that.
