Benefits of Agile development process

Unlike traditional waterfall-based software development methods, the Agile development process focuses on ensuring that the business value of software functionality is not only delivered quicker (maximizing ROI) but delivered with higher quality while accomodating changing requirements (an inevitable element).

The foundation of a successful Agile development process includes frequent client communication, multiple focused releases, continuous integration, and extensive automated unit, function, and regression testing.  In addition, successful Agile development projects embrace change and accomodate evolving user requirements in the iteration schedule.

How agileSEQUENT can help

agileSEQUENT will work closely with you and develop a custom Agile implementation process program uniquely tailored to your objectives. 

Typical Agile process implementation solutions

Introduction to Agile process: we will focus on agile concepts, practices and theory; how to manage Agile projects;  how to define and develop stories;  plan releases and iterations

Basic Agile process training;  we will review tools and methods that enable Agile development.  Topics covered include:  NUnit, Cruise Control, incremental design, test-driven development, and continuous integration.  We also will cover best practices in automating build procedures as well as integrating automated tests.   

Managing requirements in Agile development:  we will review the roles and responsibilities of the customer in an Agile development project;  introduce customer stories and customer tests;  how to write customer tests to address different scenarios.   Additional emphasis will be placed on collaborative exercises where your team members will develop specific tests for different types of stores:  user experience (UI) centric, process (workflow centric), and integration (interface / data exchage centric).
