Agile Model

The Agile Model is a flexible software development methodology that emphasizes customer collaboration and quick delivery through iterative sprints lasting 1 to 4 weeks. It allows for continuous feedback and adaptation to changing requirements, fostering team collaboration while delivering working software frequently. However, it requires experienced teams to manage scope creep and may lack sufficient documentation, making timelines difficult to predict.

• Agile Model

The Agile Model is a software development methodology that emphasizes flexibility, customer
collaboration, and quick delivery of working software. In Agile, software is developed in small,
manageable units known as iterations or sprints, which typically last from 1 to 4 weeks. After
each sprint, the software is evaluated, and feedback is gathered from the customer. Based on this
feedback, changes or improvements are made for the next iteration.

Agile development follows an iterative and incremental approach, meaning the product is built
piece by piece, and improvements are continuously made based on ongoing feedback and
collaboration. This model is especially suited for projects where the requirements are expected to
change frequently or evolve throughout the development process.

Key Points of the Agile Model:

1. Iterative and Incremental Development: Agile breaks down the development process into
small iterations (called sprints), each lasting from 1 to 4 weeks. At the end of each sprint, a
working version of the software is delivered.

2. Customer Involvement: The customer is involved at every stage of the development process.
After each sprint, the customer gives feedback, which helps improve the software’s features.

3. Flexibility to Change: Agile allows for changes in requirements even late in the development
process. This helps in adapting to changing needs of the customer.

4. Collaboration: Agile encourages close collaboration between all team members and
stakeholders (customers, managers, etc.). Communication is frequent and continuous.

5. Frequent Deliveries: Since development happens in small iterations, the software is delivered
frequently. This provides the customer with a working product early on in the process.

Phases of Agile Model:


1. Planning Phase: The team and stakeholders decide on the tasks and features to be developed in
the sprint. The team selects the tasks from the product backlog (a list of all requirements).

2. Requirements Gathering and Analysis: The customer provides the requirements and helps
prioritize them. These requirements are then analyzed, clarified, and documented.

3. Design Phase: Basic designs of the product are created, and the architecture is planned. The
design should be flexible and adaptable to changes.
4. Coding Phase: Development begins, and the team writes code for the features selected in the
sprint. The code is continuously tested for errors and bugs.

5. Testing Phase: Testing is done regularly in Agile to ensure the software is working as
expected. Bugs and issues are identified and fixed early in the process.

6. Review and Feedback: After the sprint, the product is reviewed by the customer, and feedback
is gathered. The team makes adjustments and improvements based on the feedback.

Advantages of Agile Model:


1. Flexibility: Agile can easily accommodate changes in requirements, even late in the project.

2. Customer Satisfaction: Continuous customer feedback ensures the software meets their
expectations.

3. Faster Delivery: Frequent releases of working software allow for quicker delivery to the
customer.

4. Improved Quality: Continuous testing and feedback help catch errors early and improve the
overall quality of the software.

5. Team Collaboration: Agile fosters collaboration and communication within the team and with
stakeholders.

Disadvantages of Agile Model:

1. Requires Experienced Teams: Agile demands high-level collaboration and decision-making,


which may be challenging for inexperienced teams.

2. Scope Creep: Frequent changes in requirements can lead to scope creep, making it difficult to
control the project’s scope.
3. Lack of Documentation: Agile focuses on working software, so there may be insufficient
documentation, which can cause issues later.

4. Difficult to Predict Timelines: Agile is flexible and doesn’t always offer clear timelines,
making it challenging to predict completion dates.
