Framework and Methodology

Agile Fundamentals

Agile software delivery rests on four core principles from the Agile Manifesto:

1. Individuals and interactions over processes and tools.
2. Working software over comprehensive documentation.
3. Customer collaboration over contract negotiation.
4. Responding to change over following a plan.

Scrum Framework

Scrum is an empirical process framework with three pillars: transparency, inspection, adaptation.
