Traditional Methodologies and Agile Methodologies

The document compares traditional methodologies, like Waterfall, with Agile methodologies, highlighting key differences. Traditional methods are linear, involve extensive planning, and have limited customer involvement, resulting in longer delivery times and late quality assurance. In contrast, Agile methodologies are iterative, adaptive, and promote ongoing customer involvement, leading to quicker software delivery and continuous quality assurance.

Traditional Methodologies (e.g.

, Waterfall):
1. Sequential and Linear: Conventional methods take a sequential and linear
approach. Requirements, design, implementation, testing, and deployment are all
completed before moving on to the next phase of the project.

2. Extensive Planning: At the start of the project, detailed planning is done,


frequently with a thorough project plan and a specified scope. Once the project is
underway, changes are often discouraged.

3. Well-Defined Requirements: The demands of the project are typically collected


and stated at the very beginning. It can be challenging to adapt to demand changes.

4. Longer Delivery Time: Since each phase must be finished before moving on to the
next, projects typically take longer to deliver. At the project's conclusion, the
finished product is given.

5. Limited Customer Involvement: Customers are often only lightly involved in the
project's development and only receive input at the beginning and end.

6. Risk Management: A strict approach may result from the frequent identification
of risks in advance and their treatment in the project plan.

7. Quality Assurance at the End: Since testing and quality control are done toward
the end of the project, flaws may not be discovered until then.

Agile methodologies (such as Kanban and Scrum):


1. Iterative and Incremental: Agile approaches are incremental and iterative, with
work broken up into manageable chunks. Requirements, design, implementation,
testing, and deployment are often included in each iteration.

2. Adaptive Planning: Planning is flexible and aims to swiftly create a minimal


viable product (MVP). All during the project, changes are anticipated and taken
into account.

3. Changing Requirements: As a project develops, requirements may alter, providing


for more flexibility and client demands for adaptation.

4. Quicker Software Delivery: Agile projects frequently produce working software


more quickly since increments are given at the conclusion of each iteration.

5. Ongoing Customer Involvement: Throughout the process, customers and stakeholders


are involved, providing input and guiding priority.

6. Continuous Risk Management: Agile approaches place a strong emphasis on


continuous risk management and adaptability, making them more adaptable to changes
and difficulties.

7. Continuous Quality Assurance: Testing and quality control are incorporated into
each iteration to sustain quality throughout the project.
