Agile Software Development

History

Why Agile?

James Shore and Shane Warden <ref>Shore, James and Warden, Shane. The Art of Agile Development. O’Reilly Media, Inc., 2008, p. 4.</ref> state that the benefit for developers to follow a Agile software development process is to deliver successful products to the client or customer. He defines success into 3 types:

  1. Organizational
    • Deliver value and decrease costs to increase return on investment.
  2. Technical
    • Elegant and maintainable code is produced.
  3. Personal
    • Developers find the project fun and rewarding which lead them to be intrinsically motivated and devote passion to the work.

Manifesto

From Agile Manifesto

  • Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
  • Working software over comprehensive documentation
  • Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
  • Responding to change over following a plan
