Agile Software Development

Agile Software Development introduces the whole range of agile software development processes, from fundamental concepts to advanced applications such as requirement analysis, software testing, quality assurance, and risk management.

Agile Software Development (ASD) has become a popular technology because its methods apply to any programming paradigm. It plays a crucial role in the software development process by emphasizing incremental delivery, team collaboration, continuous planning, and learning over delivering everything at once near the end. Agile's popularity stems from its use of various frameworks, methods, and techniques to enhance software quality. Scrum is a major agile framework widely adopted by the software development community.

Metaheuristic techniques have been integrated into the agile software development process to improve software quality and reliability. These techniques not only enhance quality and reliability but also optimize test cases, resulting in cost-effective and time-efficient software solutions. Nonetheless, many significant research challenges must be addressed to fully realise ASD capabilities. Through the application of diverse techniques, guiding principles, artificial intelligence, soft computing, and machine learning, this book examines theoretical and technological research findings on all facets of ASD. Additionally, it illuminates the latest trends, challenges, and applications in the field of ASD.

This book delves into both the theoretical and technical research outcomes on all aspects of Agile Software Development by employing various methods, principles, artificial intelligence, soft computing, and machine learning.

Audience
