Agile software development — 5 essential facts for startup CEOs

  1. Agile giúp giảm độ rủi ro trong phát triển phần mềm bằng cách phát triển các phần nhỏ và lấy phản hồi từ người dùng (Iterative, cyclical process).
  2. Không phải lúc nào cũng có thể hiểu rõ cách người dùng sẽ sử dụng sản phẩm (Real users are weird and unpredictable).
  3. Agile cho phép thay đổi yêu cầu dựa trên phản hồi thực tế từ người dùng (Requirements will change — embrace this).
  4. Cần giao quyền quyết định cao cho quản lý sản phẩm và kỹ sư để thúc đẩy sự tự chủ (Autonomy & Trust).
  5. Agile ưu tiên cá nhân và tương tác hơn quy trình và công cụ (Individuals and interactions over processes and tools).
  6. Phát triển phần mềm cần sự hợp tác trực tiếp giữa lập trình viên và các bên liên quan (Collaboration).
  7. Đo lường tiến độ chủ yếu bằng phần mềm hoạt động (Progress is measured by working software).
  8. Agile có nguyên tắc ‘tối giản’, tối đa hóa công việc không cần làm (Maximise the work you decide not to do).
