  1. Agile Software Development Methodology Explained: Definition, Types, How It Works • The face of software development has changed dramatically. • Over the years, we have seen different types of software development models and methodologies that laid the foundation of today’s technological advancements. • IT and software development companies are constantly looking for ways to improve the quality of their software at each release. • And not just that, but they want a model that can adapt to change quickly. • This is where Agile Software Development comes into the picture.

  2. What is Agile Software Development? • Agile Software Development methodology is an approach to product development that addresses the principles and values described in the Agile Manifesto for software development.  • In simple terms, it is a practice that promotes continuous iteration of software testing and development throughout the software development lifecycle. • Unlike the waterfall approach, both the testing and development activities are concurrent in the Agile model. 

  3. There are four core values that harness Agile Software Development. • Responding to change over following a plan  • Customer collaboration over contract negotiations  • Working software over sophisticated documentation  • Team and individual interactions over tools and processes  There are six obvious Agile methods present in Agile Software Development. They are listed below: 

  4. #1 SCRUM • SCRUM is an Agile methodology thatfocuses on managing tasks created within the team-based development environment. There are three roles:  • Scrum Master: creates team, assigns tasks, and removes any obstacles. • Product Owner: creates product backlogs and delivers the functionality at each iteration . • Scrum Team: organizes the work .

  5. #2 Crystal Methodologies : The crystal methodology functions on the following concepts: • Creating a development environment, feasibility analysis, and fine-tuning the development process  • Cyclic delivery of the developed phases. • Deployment of the software in the user environment 

  6. #3 Dynamic Software Development Method (DSDM) • DSDM refers to the RAD (Rapid Application Development) approach in which its aim is to provide an agile project delivery framework to developers. Techniques used in DSDM include:  • Prototyping  • MoSCoW Rules  • Time Boxing 

  7. #4 Feature Driven Development (FDD) • Visibility of progress and results  • Regular builds  • Configuration management  • Inspections  • Feature teams  • Class/component ownership  • Development by feature  • Domain object modeling

  8. #5 Lean Software Development  This method aims at enhancing the speed of software development while reducing costs. The process involves:  • Early delivery  • Eliminating waste  • Defer commitment  • Amplifying learning  • Building integrity  • Empowering the team 

  9. #6 Extreme Programming  • Extreme programming is a technique that is quite beneficial when there are frequent changes in the requirements or demands of the customer. • The goal of this method is to frequently improve the productivity of the system. 

  10. Conclusion • This is all you need to know about Agile Software Development. • It is much more advanced than the traditional waterfall method. • But it lacks structure and planning. However, customers and developers prefer this approach over others because it gives them the opportunity to make necessary changes whenever required.
