Agile software development is a conceptual framework for undertaking software engineering projects. Most agile methods attempt to minimize risk by developing software in short timeboxes, called iterations, which may typically last one to four weeks. Each iteration is like a miniature software project of its own, and includes all of the tasks necessary to release the mini-increment of new functionality. Timeboxing is a time management technique common in planning projects (typically for software development), where the schedule is divided into a number of separate time periods (timeboxes, normally two to six weeks long), with each part having its own deliverables, deadline and budget. Timeboxing is a core aspect of rapid application development (RAD) software development processes, such as dynamic systems development method (DSDM) . | Lecture 3 Enterprise Systems Development (CSC447) COMSATS Islamabad Muhammad Usman, Assistant Professor College of Statistical and Acturial Science 1 2 Agile Development 2001: Kent Beck and 16 other software developers, referred to as “Agile Alliance”, signed the “manifesto for Agile software development”.
