This course is designed to help learners build an understanding of Agile’s process model and its different approaches and techniques.

To understand the advantages of implementing Agile techniques, the course begins with a comparison of Agile methods and the traditional Waterfall model. Then, you’ll get to know about different planning approaches to help users effectively adjust deadlines. Next, there’s a discussion on backlogs and different visual techniques, such as burn-down charts and burn-up charts, that help increase the efficiency of projects.

You will also learn Agile methodologies including SCRUM, eXtreme Programming, DSDM, Smart and Kanban, as well as the differences and similarities between these approaches. Finally, you’ll look at some common problems and learn ways to solve them using Agile methodologies.

User stories have their origin in Extreme Programming and have emerged as a holistic response to cumbersome techniques commonly used for capturing requirements in the mid-1990s. Projects in that era produced requirements in thick paper packages. The user story is exactly the opposite. It’s an extremely minimal record of the requirements.
