The four values of the Agile Manifesto
- Individuals and interactions over processes and tools.
- Working software over comprehensive documentation.
- Customer collaboration over contract negotiation.
- Responding to change over following a plan.
The following 12 Principles are based on the Agile Manifesto.
1-Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software.
2-Welcome changing requirements, even late in development. Agile processes harness change for the customer’s competitive advantage.
3-Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter timescale.
4-Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project.
5-Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.
6-The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation.
7-Working software is the primary measure of progress.
8-Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.
9-Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.
10-Simplicity–the art of maximizing the amount of work not done–is essential.
11-The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.
12-At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
