Manifesto for Agile Software Development
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.
Kent Beck
Mike Beedle
Arie van
Bennekum
Alistair Cockburn

Ward
Cunningham
Martin Fowler
James Grenning
Jim Highsmith

Andrew Hunt
Ron Jeffries
Jon Kern
Brian Marick
Robert C. Martin

Welcome changing requirements, even late in
development. Agile processes harness change for
the customer's competitive advantage.

@morafabio
1 • Logical conviction

Ask the right questions.

You do, you rule.

• Find a clear direction
Urgency and critical moves.

9

@morafabio
2 • Emotional drive
• Change is a requirement
As in Agile Manifesto principles.

We’re developers! Motivation is inside.

• External advantages
More time, gratification, satisfaction, money...

@morafabio
3 • Remove Obstacles

Manage fear - TDD is as trojan horse.

Remove management frictions, better tools, benefits...

@morafabio
Definitely, can you change it?
Yes.

Plan, do, check, act/adjust
