POCKET-SIZED PRINCIPLES
1. Our highest priority is to satisfy the
customer through early and continuous
delivery of valuable software.
2. Welcome changing requirements, even late
in development. Agile processes harness
change for the customer's competitive
advantage.
3. Deliver working software frequently, from a
couple of weeks to a couple of months, with
a preference to the shorter timescale.
4. Business people and developers must work
together daily throughout the project.
5. Build projects around motivated individuals.
Give them the environment and support
they need, and trust them to get the job
done.
6. The most efficient and effective method of
conveying information to and within a
development team is face-to-face
conversation.
7. Working software is the primary measure
of progress.
8. Agile processes promote sustainable
development. The sponsors, developers,
and users should be able to maintain a
constant pace indefinitely.
9. Continuous attention to technical
excellence and good design enhances
agility.
10.Simplicity--the art of maximizing the
amount of work not done--is essential.
11.The best architectures, requirements,
and designs emerge from self-organizing
teams.
12.At regular intervals, the team reflects on
how to become more effective, then tunes
and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
