Agile Software Development
Agile software development is an iterative and incremental approach to software development where requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-organizing cross-functional teams to produce high quality software in a cost effective and timely manner.
Agile software development conforms to the values and principles of the Agile Manifesto.
The Agile Manifesto is the basis for Extreme Programming (XP) and values:
- Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
- Working software over comprehensive documentation
- Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
- Responding to change over following a plan
Extreme Programming has early, concrete, and continuing feedback from short cycles of development, the ability to flexibly schedule functionality, while responding to changing business needs and has reliance on the close collaboration of the customer and developers.
