Agile Model

The Agile model is a software development approach based on iterative development where projects are broken into smaller iterations typically lasting 1-4 weeks. Each iteration involves a full development life cycle from planning to testing to deliver working code. The requirements are defined upfront but can evolve between iterations based on feedback. Common Agile methods include Scrum, eXtreme Programming, Crystal, DSDM, FDD, and Lean which all emphasize iterative development, collaboration, adaptive planning, and rapid delivery of working software.

Agile Model

The meaning of Agile is swift or versatile."Agile process model" refers to a software


development approach based on iterative development. Agile methods break tasks into
smaller iterations, or parts do not directly involve long term planning. The project scope
and requirements are laid down at the beginning of the development process. Plans
regarding the number of iterations, the duration and the scope of each iteration are clearly
defined in advance.

Each iteration is considered as a short time "frame" in the Agile process model, which
typically lasts from one to four weeks. The division of the entire project into smaller parts
helps to minimize the project risk and to reduce the overall project delivery time
requirements. Each iteration involves a team working through a full software development
life cycle including planning, requirements analysis, design, coding, and testing before a
working product is demonstrated to the client.

Phases of Agile Model:


Following are the phases in the Agile model are as follows:

1. Requirements gathering
2. Design the requirements
3. Construction/ iteration
4. Testing/ Quality assurance
5. Deployment
6. Feedback

1. Requirements gathering: In this phase, you must define the requirements. You should
explain business opportunities and plan the time and effort needed to build the project.
Based on this information, you can evaluate technical and economic feasibility.

2. Design the requirements: When you have identified the project, work with
stakeholders to define requirements. You can use the user flow diagram or the high-level
UML diagram to show the work of new features and show how it will apply to your existing
system.

3. Construction/ iteration: When the team defines the requirements, the work begins.
Designers and developers start working on their project, which aims to deploy a working
product. The product will undergo various stages of improvement, so it includes simple,
minimal functionality.

4. Testing: In this phase, the Quality Assurance team examines the product's performance
and looks for the bug.

5. Deployment: In this phase, the team issues a product for the user's work environment.

6. Feedback: After releasing the product, the last step is feedback. In this, the team
receives feedback about the product and works through the feedback.

Agile Testing Methods:


o Scrum
o Crystal
o Dynamic Software Development Method(DSDM)
o Feature Driven Development(FDD)
o Lean Software Development
o eXtreme Programming(XP)

Scrum
SCRUM is an agile development process focused primarily on ways to manage tasks in
team-based development conditions.
There are three roles in it, and their responsibilities are:

o Scrum Master: The scrum can set up the master team, arrange the meeting and
remove obstacles for the process
o Product owner: The product owner makes the product backlog, prioritizes the
delay and is responsible for the distribution of functionality on each repetition.
o Scrum Team: The team manages its work and organizes the work to complete the
sprint or cycle.

eXtreme Programming(XP)
This type of methodology is used when customers are constantly changing demands or
requirements, or when they are not sure about the system's performance.

Crystal:
There are three concepts of this method-

1. Chartering: Multi activities are involved in this phase such as making a development
team, performing feasibility analysis, developing plans, etc.
2. Cyclic delivery: under this, two more cycles consist, these are:

A. Team updates the release plan.


B. Integrated product delivers to the users.
3. Wrap up: According to the user environment, this phase performs deployment,
post-deployment.

Dynamic Software Development Method(DSDM):


DSDM is a rapid application development strategy for software development and gives an
agile project distribution structure. The essential features of DSDM are that users must be
actively connected, and teams have been given the right to make decisions. The
techniques used in DSDM are:

1. Time Boxing
2. MoSCoW Rules
3. Prototyping

The DSDM project contains seven stages:


1. Pre-project
2. Feasibility Study
3. Business Study
4. Functional Model Iteration
5. Design and build Iteration
6. Implementation
7. Post-project

Feature Driven Development(FDD):


This method focuses on "Designing and Building" features. In contrast to other smart
methods, FDD describes the small steps of the work that should be obtained separately
per function.

Lean Software Development:


Lean software development methodology follows the principle "just in time production."
The lean method indicates the increasing speed of software development and reducing
costs. Lean development can be summarized in seven phases.
