From the post, this simple overview of the different Agile-Lean methods found was too great to not share. Sometimes it is best to keep it simple to build a foundational understanding….then build on that.
We'll share The Agilista PM's description of Waterfall Development.
Waterfall Development
‘Waterfall Development’ is another name for the more traditional approach to software development.
It’s called ‘waterfall’ as this type of development is often planned using a Gantt chart – you complete one phase (e.g. planning) before moving on to the next phase (e.g. development).
In Waterfall approaches, you will rarely aim to re-visit a ‘phase’ once it’s completed. As such, you better get whatever you’re doing right the first time!
This approach is highly risky, often more costly and generally less efficient than more Agile approaches.
To learn about the other types of development, check out the post directly at The Agilista PM.
