Agile Development

 

What is Agile Development? Agile methods are a family of development processes, for creating software in a lighter, faster, more people-centric way. The Agile Manifesto[W] , defines the principles. Customer satisfaction by rapid, continuous delivery of useful software Working software is delivered frequently (weeks rather than months) Working software is the principal measure of progress Even late changes in requirements are welcomed Close, daily, cooperation between business people and developers Face-to-face conversation is the best form of communication Projects are built around motivated individuals, who should be trusted Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design Simplicity Self-organizing teams Regular adaptation to changing circumstances

Using neatComponents in Agile development

neatComponents encourages an Agile development methodology by enabling all parties to simultaneously view and edit a site. This is equally true during the initial development phases and once the site is in active use: neatComponents does not distinguish between these two phases, and provides a working system right from the start.

neatComponents has significant benefits for the Agile team:

• You don't need a separate development license for each developer or participant: so you can include as many interested parties as you need
• Data is stored centrally, so there are no version-control problems, and record-locking is automatic
• Approval controls and change-control mechanisms keep the project on track
• Changes to be made to the structure at any time, without loss of data
