discussion post 550
Agile and plan-driven methods both form part of the planning spectrum. Despite certain extreme terminology, each is part of the responsible center rather than the radical fringe. Indeed, agile methods perform a valuable service by drawing erstwhile cowboy programmers toward a more responsible center.
Both agile and plan-driven methods have a home ground of project characteristics in which each clearly works best, and where the other will have difficulties. Hybrid approaches that combine both methods are feasible and necessary for projects that combine a mix of agile and plan-driven homeground characteristics. Risk analysis of your projectâ€
s characteristics versus a given methodâ€
s home-ground characteristics can help determine the best balance of agile and plan-driven disciplines.
Question for Discussion
Based on the reading and analysis of the paper Get Ready for Agile Methods with Care and your understanding of the topics covered in this module, evaluate the author’s statement below – do you agree and explain why.
“I believe that both agile and plan-driven approaches have a responsible center and over-interpreting radical fringes. Although each approach has a home ground of project characteristics within which it performs very well, and much better than the other, outside each approachâ€
s home ground, a combined approach is feasible and preferable.”
