Agile Software Development plays a quintessential part in modern day software development. The term Agile refers to frequent reassessment and adaptation of plans and techniques and dividing tasks into shorter tasks for efficiency. Agile Software Development differs considerably from Traditional Software Development Methodology. Agile methodology aims to deliver features of a software project in small steps within a short duration of time (i.e., iterations). Hence, it becomes necessary to use agile software development methodology in todays’ fast-paced revolutionizing software industry. This paper discusses the important subtopics of Agile Software Development which gathered by reviewing/surveying of research papers. First, is the Agile Planning Life Cycle which consists of various stages such as pre-planning, planning, release planning and product backlog management. In the next section, principles such as Scrum, Extreme Programming, Kanban and Lean are discussed. The last section comprises the impact of Agile principles on software quality.

The term Agile Method of software development was coined in the 2001.This approach is characterized with creativity, flexibility, adaptability, responsiveness, and human-centricity. Researchers have suggested that the complex, uncertain, and ever-changing environment is pushing developers to adopt agile methods rather than traditional software development. Agile methodologist claim that their Agile methods is the answer for the software engineering chaotic situation, in which projects are exceeding their time and budget limits, requirements are not fulfilled, and consequently ending up with unsatisfied customers. In this chapter we will explain agile methodology, its general characteristics, and quick description of the famous agile methods known in the industry and research.

The history of humankind offers lots of remarkable ideas and innovations in strategy and tactics. There is no area where people have shown more inventiveness than defending themselves or attacking and conquering others. On the other hand, the Agile methodology emerged from software development, where it tried to provide support for the successful organization of delivery projects, that have to fight and conquer the complexity. This article evidences similarities between the Agile methodology and attacking and war strategies, making extended references to one of the most renowned military treaties: Sun Tzu's The Art of War. Making inter-disciplinary analogies, comparing and contrasting the concepts from different disciplines are at the core of this article. We'll investigate what things as initial estimations, attack by stratagem, tactical dispositions, energy, weak points, and strong points, maneuvering, variation in tactics, the army on the march, terrain, arriving on unknown ground, concrete situations on the ground, the use of spies, or what the attack by fire may mean in software development. We'll analyze how these war strategy concepts transpose to Agile concepts like adding business value, getting to the business goals, managing complexity, conducting the work the incremental and non-incremental way.


Adoption of Agile methodologies in IT organizations has revolutionized software development. It has improved speed of development, quality of final product, customer satisfaction, project control and reduced risk and wastage. Agile methodology is however not just a process but it is a philosophy that has a deep impact on the behavior and mindset of employees. Current paper attempts to study this impact and deduce whether it has a positive impact on Trust, Knowledge Sharing and Collaboration.

Agile methodology mainly focuses on the end user priority during the each and every stage of software development process. There is a huge scope in this technique in order to alter the major/minor modifications at each stage of software development for attaining the customer satisfaction. The main aim of the present work is to compare agile methodology with the traditional system methodologies. The present state of using the agile technologies for customer satisfaction at every phase by delivering valuable software continuously is also discussed in the present work. Based on the pitfalls in the existing models, a new model is proposed here in the present study.

During the past years, new software development approaches were introduced to suit within the new trend of the software development corporations. Most Software Corporation’s today aim to provide valuable software in short period of time with marginal prices and among unstable, ever-changing environments. Agile methodology focuses on the challenges of unpredictability of the real world by relying on individuals and their creative thinking instead of method. In this paper we tend to explore about the current agile methods, strengths and weaknesses of agile strategies and numerous problems with their relevancy. We have conjointly enclosed comparison between traditional software development process and agile software development process. This paper also includes brief discussion about the benefits and problems associated with these methodologies by performing case study of two corporations.
