Although they are different in details, Agile development methods, like eXtreme Programming or Scrum, have all the same goals:
- Ensure that software fit customer needs (Value customer),
- Decrease development times,
- Improve produced software quality.
Agile methods deeply change practices of development teams and relations with the end user by using some guidelines now accepted for their high-efficiency :
- The code-centric,
- The test-driven development,
- The short delivery cycle,
- The rapid customer feedback.
Some tools and techniques coming from web and freeware developments support these Agile methods. OQube helps you to integrate this infrastructure:
