  • Abstract
    Over the last decade, software development has seen a substantial growth in the use of agile techniques. Agile emerged as an alternative way to develop software and manage projects. Unlike traditional methods that focus on modelling and analysis, agile encourages communication and collaboration with end users to develop software without the need for modelling. Documentation that is large, paper-based, and difficult-to-read becomes the enemy because it empedes effective communication among people in projects.
