Agile Manifesto
Source: http://agilemanifesto.org
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

19. Agile/Scrum Theory
• Scrum employs an iterative, incremental approach to optimize predictability and
control risk.
• Three pillars uphold every implementation of empirical process control:
transparency, inspection, and adaptation.
– Transparency: Significant aspects of the process must be visible to those responsible for the
outcome.
– Inspection: Scrum users must frequently inspect Scrum artifacts and progress toward a Sprint
Goal to detect undesirable variances.
– Adaptation: If a member determines that one or more aspects of a process deviate outside
acceptable limits, and that the resulting product will be unacceptable, the process or the
material being processed must be adjusted.
