Agile is a group of software development methodologies in which requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between self-organizing, cross-functional teams. It promotes adaptive planning, evolutionary development, early delivery, continuous improvement, and encourages rapid and flexible response to change.


Agile Manifesto

"We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value:

  • Individuals and interactions over Processes and tools
  • Working software over Comprehensive documentation
  • Customer collaboration over Contract negotiation
  • Responding to change over Following a plan

That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more."

12 Agile Principles


Methodologies

A list of the most prominent Agile Methodologies follows, but for any methodology the emphasis is on moving faster than business has done in the past, and the commonality is to where possible look to streamlining processes in order to ensure the most. The most prominently used methodology in Software Development has up until recently been Scrum, but now DevOps is rapidly taking over; meanwhile the most common in manufacturing has been Lean Six Sigma but Kanban and/or Lean Startup are taking over.

Often these Agile Methodologies are combined to some success, for example Lean Manufacturing of physical goods can borrow aspects of Scrum for brainstorming/ideation and even DevOps practices for running their production line's IT systems and/or managing factory automation, as is inevitably required for large-scale productions of goods. Another example from the software world is to use Lean Manufacturing processes to setup the Delivery Pipeline similar to a modular factory floor layout where incremental pieces of a larger product are put together in various stages (as in Microservices that work together but are developed separately by various teams), yet organizationally adhering to Kanban for Project Management tasks such as moving tasks between various statuses from assignment through to completion and doing Scrum Daily Standup and/or post-Sprint meetings or relying on its Burndown Charts for effort estimations and resource planning. With Agile, it is important to note that adherence to a single Agile Methodology is much less important than the end result, which should remain on target or corrected for along the way (early and often) as needed.


Lean

Lean.jpg

Lean methodologies are those which aim to maximize customer value while minimizing waste. This is accomplished in Lean by creating more value for customers with fewer resources (natural, human, operational and/or monetary). Key corporate processes are focused on, in order to continuously increase customer value. Lean thinking changes the focus of management from optimizing separate technologies, assets, and vertical departments to optimizing the flow of products and services through entire value streams that flow horizontally across technologies, assets, and departments to customers. Eliminating waste along entire value streams, instead of at isolated points, creates processes that need less human effort, less space, less capital, and less time to make products and services at far less costs and with much fewer defects, compared with traditional business systems. It also improves overall corporate responsiveness to changing customer desires. Businesses in all industries and services, including healthcare and governments, are using lean principles as the way they think and do.


Many of the "Lean" methodologies and practices emerged from the Total Quality Management (TQM)[8] movement in the 1980's to 1990's to increase competition with Japan and other international net exporters of the time, who were beating American companies on product quality and lower product defects in a substantial/measurable manner.

TPS

The Toyota Production System (TPS) is a leading, frequently-studied "Lean" management approach pioneered by the Toyota Motor Corporation which intends to optimize flow (both effectiveness & efficiency) of the vehicle manufacturing process from ideation to design to the individual parts manufacturers' factory floors and Toyota's own production/assembly lines. It has been adapted and served as inspiration for a number of other manufacturing industries, followed by the software development and general IT industries as well.

  1. Smooth rough edges/spots (konnyaku stone)
  2. Mistake avoidance (poka yoke)
  3. Continuous Learning (hansei)
  4. Safety Signal (andon)

Six Sigma

SixSigma.jpg

Six Sigma is a form of opposing yet potentially compatible if not complimentary approach to efficiency & project agility than the core Agile methodologies (which are more focused on quick results & fixes than up-front perfection). It prioritizes reduction of defects overall before a given product or service goes into production, aiming to reduce defect rates down to the "high quality" threshold of 3.4 defects per 1000000 opportunities. An opportunity is a situation where a direct sale or key customer interaction potentially leading to a sale can be made; i.e. customer impression, transaction, event, signup, trial, etc.

It is said to be compatible with other Agile Methodologies (depending on corporate goals & brand positioning) because it aims to make customers happier and increase profits, which are commonly stated reasons for Agile adoption. Its premise is on saving money by avoiding defects since they cost alot of money to fix (especially in the case of lawsuits for major malfunctions or recalls in physical goods and products). An improvement system for existing processes or systems falling below specification to be incrementally improved is DMAIC:

  1. Define
  2. Measure
  3. Analyze
  4. Improve
  5. Control

[33] Define the problem, Measure the severity, Analyze opportunities for change, Improve processes & remove bottlenecks[34] and Control waste or non-value adding activities[35].

SixSigma DMADV.png

Similarly, the Six Sigma DMADV process is an improvement system used to develop new processes or products at Six Sigma quality levels. It can also be employed if a current process requires more than just incremental improvement.

  1. Define
  2. Measure
  3. Analyze
  4. Design
  5. Verify

[36]

Define the problem, Measure the severity, Analyze opportunities for change, Design a better solution (often a new product entirely or "greenfielding") and Verify that the new solution solves the problem better than any existing solution.

Lean Six Sigma
LeanSixSigma 8-wastes.png

Lean Six Sigma is a collaborative team effort to improve corporate performance by systematically removing waste, combining lean manufacturing & lean enterprise concepts with traditional and Six Sigma to eliminate the eight kinds of waste (Japanese term for which is muda). There are 7 main types of "muda" to be eliminated or reduced as much as possible, commonly abbreviated as TIMWOODS:

  1. Transportation
  2. Inventory
  3. Motion
  4. Waiting
  5. Over production
  6. Over processing
  7. Defects
  8. Skills

Lean Startup

LeanStartup.jpg

Lean Startup is a methodology for developing new businesses, enhancing existing ones & innovating upon product lines or creating revolutionary new products which disrupt their most similar markets' incumbents. Shorten product development cycles by adopting a combination of business-hypothesis-driven experimentation, iterative product releases, and validated learning. The central hypothesis of the lean startup methodology is that if startup companies invest their time into iteratively building products or services to meet the needs of early customers, they can reduce the market risks and sidestep the need for large amounts of initial project funding and expensive product launches and failures.

Value Stream Mapping

Value Stream Mapping is a "Lean Agile" technique used to highlight waste and bottlenecks in a given production system, from ideation to deployment of features, products and projects into customers' hands.

[98] [99] [100] [101] [102] [103] [104] [105] [106] [107] [108] [109] [110] [111] [112] [113] [114] [115] [116] [117] [118] [119] [120] [121] [122] [123] [124] [125] [126] [127] [128] [129] [130] [131] [132] [133] [134] [135] [136] [137] [138] [139] [140] [141] [142] [143] [144] [145] [146] [147] [148] [149] [150] [151] [152] [153] [154] [155] [156] [157] [158] [159] [160] [161] [162]

Kanban

Kanban.jpg

Kanban is a methodology for managing knowledge work with an emphasis on just-in-time delivery while not overloading project team members. In this approach, the process, from definition of a task to its delivery to the customer, is displayed for participants to see. Team members pull work from a queue of items to be done. Kanban in the context of software development can mean a visual process-management system that tells what to produce, when to produce it, and how much to produce - inspired by the Toyota Production System[163] and Lean manufacturing[164]. The name Kanban originates from Japanese[看板], and translates roughly as "signboard" or "billboard", representing the importance of visualization of work-in-progress and the workflow for completing individual work items. The primary goal of Kanban is to expose system operation (or process) problems and stimulate collaboration to continuously improve the system. Kanban is founded upon four basic principles:

  1. Start with existing process
  2. Agree to pursue incremental, evolutionary change
  3. Respect the current process, roles, responsibilities & titles
  4. Leadership at all levels

Kanban Boards and Kanban Cards are two of the more prominent tools which can be used to implement the Kanban method of management for a project. Whereas Kanban (signal) Cards represent demand or capacity, a Kanban Board utilizes magnets, plastic chips, colored washers or sticky notes to represent work items. Each of these objects represents an item in a production process as it moves around the board. Its movement corresponds with a manufacturing process. At its simplest, the board is usually divided into three sections: "awaiting production", "work in progress" and "completed work" (or correspondingly "To Do", "Doing" & "Done").

Backlog

Visual representation of all the work to be done, improvements to be made, enhancements, defect/bug fixes, technical debt to be paid down, products to manufacture, etc.

[219] [220] [221] [222] [223] [224] [225] [226] [227] [228] [229]

WIP Limits

Work-In-Progress (WIP) limits set the capacity of each work center or individual team member within the system. These limits can be applied at many levels including

  • individual
  • team
  • department
  • company

For instance a WIP limit of 3 at the individual level in the Sotware Development industry would mean that a Developer can only take on or look into at most 3 items at once. Typically a lower WIP limit (i.e. WIP limit=1) is more desirable, as the degree of focus, reduction of context switching and emphasis on completion of an item at a time is almost always the most efficient approach.

Single-piece Flow

Reducing deliveries to just what is needed, reducing large batch sizes down to ideally just the individual items that are needed, as they are needed (fits together ideally with JIT deliveries).


[230] [231]

Kaizen

Continuous Improvement (commonly referred to by its Japanese term Kaizen which literally translated means "change for the better") is the concept that all members of a team/department/company constantly collaborate towards bettering all aspects of the operation of the company and delivery flow of its products/services.

The Five S's, from the 5 Japanese words in Kaizen that summarize the approach:

  1. Sort (seiri)
  2. Set in order (seiton - Straighten)
  3. Shine (seiso)
  4. Standardize (seiketsu)
  5. Sustain (shitsuke)

[232] [233] [234] [235] [236] [237]

Continuous Learning

Another, aspect of Kaizen that is not always recognized but which some advocates argue to be more or at least "as important" as the Continuous Improvement process is the "Continuous Learning" process.

[238] [239] [240] [241]

Cumulative Flow Diagrams

Cumulative Flow Diagrams (commonly abbreviated CFD).

[242] [243] [244] [245] [246] [247] [248]

Extreme Programming

eXtreme Programming (commonly abbreviated as "XP") is a Software development methodology and team mindset which intends to improve software quality and responsiveness to changing customer requirements. It advocates frequent "releases" in short development cycles, which is intended to improve productivity and introduce checkpoints at which new customer requirements can be adopted.


  1. Planning Game - Business & Development cooperate to produce the maximum business value as rapidly as possible. The planning game happens at various scales, but the basic rules are always the same: Business comes up with a list of desired features for the system. Each feature is written out as a User Story, which gives the feature a name, and describes in broad strokes what is required. User stories are typically written on 4x6 cards. Development estimates - how much effort each story will take, and how much effort the team can produce in a given time interval (the iteration). Busines' then decides which stories to implement in what order, as well as when and how often to produce a production releases of the system.
  2. Small Releases - Start with the smallest useful feature set. Release early and often, adding a few features each time.
  3. System Metaphor - Each project has an organizing metaphor, which provides an easy to remember naming convention.
  4. Simple Design - Always use the simplest possible design that gets the job done. The requirements will change tomorrow, so only do what's needed to meet today's requirements.
  5. Continuous Testing - Before programmers add a feature, they write a test for it. When the suite runs, the job is done. Tests in XP come in two basic flavors. Unit Tests are automated tests written by the developers to test functionality as they write it. Each unit test typically tests only a single class, or a small cluster of classes. Unit tests are typically written using a unit testing framework, such as JUnit. Acceptance Tests (also known as Functional Tests) are specified by the customer to test that the overall system is functioning as specified. Acceptance tests typically test the entire system, or some large chunk of it. When all the acceptance tests pass for a given user story, that story is considered complete. At the very least, an acceptance test could consist of a script of user interface actions and expected results that a human can run. Ideally acceptance tests should be automated, either using the unit testing framework, or a separate acceptance testing framework.
  6. Refactoring - Refactor out any duplicate code generated in a coding session. You can do this with confidence that you didn't break anything because you have the tests.
  7. Pair Programming - All production code is written by two programmers sitting at one machine. Essentially, all code is reviewed as it is written.
  8. Collective Code Ownership - No single person "owns" a module. Any developer is expect to be able to work on any part of the codebase at any time.
  9. Continuous Integration - All changes are integrated into the codebase at least daily. The tests have to run 100% both before and after integration.
  10. 40-Hour Work Week - Programmers go home on time. In crunch mode, up to one week of overtime is allowed. But multiple consecutive weeks of overtime are treated as a sign that something is very wrong with the process.
  11. On-site Customer - Development team has continuous access to a real live customer, that is, someone who will actually be using the system. For commercial software with lots of customers, a customer proxy (usually the "Product Manager" or "Product Owner") is used instead.
  12. Coding Standards - Everyone codes to the same standards. Ideally, you shouldn't be able to tell by looking at it who on the team has touched a specific piece of code.

User Story

One core part of Scrum requiring a detailed breakdown is the User Story, which is Scrum's primary (in the opinion of many, the only necessary) design artifact.

User Stories typically explain the functionality not in traditional "The system must do function X" Requirements format, but rather users a more flexible and flowing yet concise template: 

As a ________ I want __________ so that ___________.

The first blank is filled with the role or archetype of the User of the system, application, product or service. The second blank is filled with the goals, capabilities, or enabling activities from the User's point of view. The third blank is filled with the justification or benefits, also from the User's point of view.

An important distinction between User Stories and Requirements is that the former are always describing "features" from an end-user perspective, while the latter tends to describe functionality or non-functional characteristics from the Business' perspective (often in an attempt to commoditize the end-user rather than provide them a service).

Story Points

Generate a list of all the required enhancements called the "Must Haves" to support current customers (users) or maintain profitability/operations, then list all necessary features to be added for growth as identified by the executives or business team and put in the "Nice To Haves" and relegate all non-essential functionality updates to a third "Wish List" category; this complete list is the Backlog which needs to be identified into a manageable number of releases over the course of a single year (i.e. release every quarter, release every month, when scrum is working well release all the way to production at the end of every Sprint). Depending on the frequency of releases, there may be a dependency on more involved upfront setup/configuration by the Technical team to put CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Deployment/Testing) and other DevOps tools/processes in place, but on large projects the amount of time/effort savings can be exponentional. The period of time in which an agreed upon amount of work must be completed and fully functional at end of such period is called a single Sprint; each Sprint should be arranged to take place over a consistent period of time, typically 2-weeks (10 business days, 14 days total) but could be anywhere from 2 to 30 days, depending on frequency of release cycle. Estimate the time it will take for each task (card). Estimates are best done in Story Points which are an intangible yet very clearly differentiated (and incremental) sizing metric that doesn't relate directly to time; good examples of this are T-Shirt sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL) or more commonly the Fibonacci sequence (0, 1/2, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ???, ☕) the argument being that many things in nature such as shells & flowers grow according to this scale; although even this scale has been modified to simplify the numbers and further differentiate the sizing in a "Fibonnaci-inspired" series (0, 1/2, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 20, 40, 100, ???, ☕). However, often when adopting Agile/Scrum management will not easily give up completely time-centric metrics and as such you could also make use of eight time-blocks (where total amount of time for a task must be less than two weeks, using a non-flexible scale where jobs take one of 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 2d, 4d, 6d, 8d (and jobs that take somewhere in between get slotted in the time-allocation above; i.e. a 3-hour job gets slotted as "4h" and a 3-day job gets slotted as "4d"). Anything larger than 8 days needs to be broken up into several smaller and more manageable sub-tasks. If it is 16d+ it is really its own Project, and should be budgeted/capitalized as such.

Scrum

Scrum is a framework for resolution of complex adaptive problems (i.e. "new product" development, research & design, etc). It is a subset of the Agile methodology whereby a team of talented cross-discipline individuals (almost always under 10, but ideally 3-5) collaborate closely with daily interaction. Because of the constantly-changing nature of the Software industry, it is perhaps most commonly used there, but has become popular in all technology-related industries, and even in more traditional or non-technical industries as their once "well-defined" requirements become "constantly changing" requirements to keep pace with competitors, maintain market share and/or solve their real-world business/operational problems.

All features delivered through Scrum are typically written from the perspective of an end-user (and thus called "User Stories"), a concept borrowed from XP. However, the Scrum Guide does not actually mandate this, it has merely become a common practice because it lends itself well to the Backlog grooming and prioritization that is prescribed by Scrum.

Scrum.jpg

In summary, Scrum is:

  1. ROLES: Executives, Product Owner, Scrum Master (or at least PM with right mindset), Developers, Testers, Customers (Users)
  2. Daily short status/challenges (< 15 min) in Scrum Standup Meeting (standing/telephone/videoconf)
  3. Features + Requirements + Defects discovered + Wish list = Backlog
  4. Feature + Requirement + Defect subset + Wish subset (to develop this release cycle) = Release Backlog
  5. Defects created as side-effect (often resolved by a separate Ops team, so Dev team can keep sprinting/releasing) = Defect Backlog
  6. (Contractual) Severity-ranked & (Business) Priority-sorted & (Technical) Time/Difficulty-estimated subset of Release Backlog = Sprint (usually 2-weeks, but could be 1-4wk cycle)
  7. Each Sprint consists of Tasks (visually represented as Cards), and should be color-coded to denote aforementioned Priority and/or Time/Difficulty Estimate
  8. A graph/chart monitoring progress of a given Sprint = Burndown Chart (should trend towards 0 or else problems)
  9. Today's Date + Work Remaining(in days) / Rate(tasks completed per day) = Completion Date (of project)
  10. Have a 30-45 minute Retrospective after each Sprint to discuss possible new efficiencies, improvements or innovations to help work faster (often called a Post-Mortem although care must be taken to avoid the slightly negative tones that term can carry[341][342][343][344][345], and Impediments should be raised if features got missed or defect rate exceeded threshold, which the Scrum Master should actively work to resolve[346])

[347] [348] [349]

Meetings

There are specifically only four meetings prescribed by the Scrum Guide.

  1. Sprint Planning
  2. Daily Standup
  3. Review
  4. Retrospective

Roles

Product Owner

Responsible for the product being delivered and acting as a liaison between the interests of the business, delivery team, and customer; Agile/Scrum purists would say the Product Owner (PO) must always put the needs/wants of the customer above those of the organization or themselves.

However, of course this role exists for a reason and some intelligent decision-making will be required as often the customer may not know exactly what they want/need (or how to describe it, and the continuity of the organization must factor into product lifecycle decisions (i.e. if 100 customers still want/need a legacy product that formerly had 10k customers, it might be more beneficial to figure out how to migrate those customers to an adequate replacement and retire the legacy product).

From the perspective of the delivery team, the belief is that "should the proper decisions have been made with regards to Technical Debt, such retirements/decommissioning/migration would never be required, as our systems would constantly evolve and never be considered legacy, out-dated or needing of replacement". This is certainly a lofty ideal but may not be possible in practice, many (most) organizations have been guilty of letting products/services run their course, making insufficient TechDebt paydowns, then making "big bang" investments every few years to upgrade, switch or reimagine them. Ability to pay down TechDebt may be limited by PO willingness and/or prohibitive factors sucha as company budgets or disjointed decision-making at the executive or business stakeholder level above the PO or team's decision-making capacity.

[353] [354] [355] [356] [357] [358] [359]

Scrum Master

Coach of the team on following Scrum, constantly improving through Retrospectives, and unblocking the team by actively removing impediments.

[360] [361] [362]

Developer

Front-end, Back-end and/or Full-stack programmers whom implement the product.

Tester
Optional roles
Actual User

In the most "hyper-Agile" of teams, Actual Users are invited in directly to work with the delivery teams to various extents. There is no greater form of feeback than direct communication between those who build and those who use the built products/services on a regular basis. However, this can also lead to problems if not structured properly (with room to grow/adapt).

It is often best used in B2B situations (i.e. vendor deliveries, supplier arrangements, etc), where a product/service provider integrates to the team(s) of their customer(s) (i.e. a software vendor allows their paid developers to sit with their client(s) teams all or part of the time, or at least join in their Daily Scrums), although can be pulled off for B2C as well with aforementioned rigor around whom is chosen from the customer base, whether and how often that representation changes and the parameters for engagement of discussion/feedback between provider and consumer of the product/service being built.


Business Users

When properly done, the Product Owner is able to fill this role acting as the business' sole representative for the end-user, but for various reasons (sometimes out of the team's control) the Business User(s) could be another individual or group (commitee) made up of Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), Product Managers, Authors, etc from around the organization.

ScrumBan

ScrumBan as its name suggests is a "best-of-both-worlds" approach that combines Scrum and Kanban. Scrum would typically be used for enhancements (i.e. new feature requests encapsulated as Epics/User-Stories/Use-Cases), while Kanban would typically be used for defects (i.e. fixing bugs, completing partially implemented features already delivered, etc); however there may be cases where they can be used interchangeably, or, where one could be used for both at different stages of the project or life of the team.
