Agile Methodologies

We use Agile Methodologies to run all our development projects.  So what is Agile?

The project is broken down into small iterations each intended to be released to users.

Features are described, broken down into simple user stories each covering a single function.  User stories are collected together to make up an agreed iteration or release.  The focus is on features needed by the users and releasing code to users, say every 3-4 weeks, ensuring that the investment in development provides benefit and users can comment on the development frequently.

This continuous iteration allows users to adjust the features as they better understand their needs.  Re-factoring or returning to examine the design is continuous ensuring that the code developed remains well-structured at all times.

Agile methodology provides a project management approach designed for today’s tools and for real business.
