Agile testing is a software testing practice that follows the principles of agile software development. Agile testing involves all members of a cross-functional agile team, with special expertise contributed by testers, to ensure delivering the business value desired by the customer at frequent intervals, working at a sustainable pace.
Extreme programming (XP) is an agile software development methodology used to implement software systems. This article details the practices used in this methodology. Extreme programming has 12 practices, grouped into four areas, derived from the best practices of software engineering. [1]
Dynamic systems development method (DSDM) is an agile project delivery framework, initially used as a software development method. [1] [2] First released in 1994, DSDM originally sought to provide some discipline to the rapid application development (RAD) method. [3]
The scaled agile framework (SAFe) is a set of organization and workflow patterns intended to guide enterprises in scaling lean and agile practices. [1] [2] Along with disciplined agile delivery (DAD) and S@S (Scrum@Scale), SAFe is one of a growing number of frameworks that seek to address the problems encountered when scaling beyond a single team.
Extreme programming (XP) is a software development methodology intended to improve software quality and responsiveness to changing customer requirements. As a type of agile software development, [1] [2] [3] it advocates frequent releases in short development cycles, intended to improve productivity and introduce checkpoints at which new customer requirements can be adopted.
[1] [2] The trend towards agile methods in software engineering is noticeable, [3] however the need for improved studies on the subject is also paramount. [4] [5] Also note that some of the methods listed might be newer or older or still in use or out-dated, and the research on software design methods is not new and on-going. [6] [7] [8] [9]
DAD builds on the many practices espoused by advocates of agile software development, including scrum, agile modeling, lean software development, and others. The primary reference for disciplined agile delivery is the book Choose Your WoW!, [1] written by Scott Ambler and Mark Lines. WoW refers to "way of working" or "ways of working".
Kent Beck (born 1961) is an American software engineer and the creator of extreme programming, [1] a software development methodology that eschews rigid formal specification for a collaborative and iterative design process. Beck was one of the 17 original signatories of the Agile Manifesto, [1] the founding document for agile software development.
