This first installment is entitled ‘Iteration -1′ since its really not related per-se to the actual project for which the series will be documenting the development process. Instead, this installment is focused on explaining the Agile software development value proposition, its core fundamental assumptions and premises, and other high-level concepts that will form the foundation for the techniques that we will explore during the rest of the Autumn of Agile series. ‘Iteration 0′ will begin with the next installment where we will focus on understanding the project requirements and look at ways to organize and flesh-out our User Stories, I promise.
