This article focuses on how Rails enables ‘’’agile development practices’ and the characteristics of Rails that support specific agile methodologies.
Agile development
What is it?
Agile development is a methodology where requirements and solutions are developed based on iterative and incremental development<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterative_and_incremental_development</ref> through collaboration between self-organizing, cross-functional teams. Using agile development methodology, a high quality software can be developed by programmers in a minimal amount of time.
Some of the process under agile development includes adaptive planning, evolutionary development and delivery, a time-boxed iterative approach, and encourages rapid and flexible response to change. It is a conceptual framework that promotes foreseen interactions throughout the development cycle.
