Theory of constraints and Specification by example part II

A lot of people read and appreciated the last post on Specification by example and Theory of constraints, so I thought I do a follow up.

I often find that your closest people are your best critics, so I asked a few of my colleagues for feedback. Håkan Forss (@hakanforss) is one of them that I respect very much in matters like these. He, like me, read and loved the Goal and I know that Håkan has great knowledge about theory of constraints and applying that kind of thinking in the system development process or other kind of knowledge work.

So it came as no surprise that Håkan had a few, rightful, objections to my reasoning. He’s points made me think another lap and I thought that it could be interesting to present it here.
