Ready, Set, Sprint
Based on the initial Design and Architecture, we use sprints, usually 2-3 weeks, to add user stories and assign development tasks to the team. Daily stand-up meetings (scrums) are held to discuss progress and any blockers. Tasks are tested by Business Analysts upon completion. At the end of each Sprint, a demo is given to the client stakeholders to show progress, gather feedback, and manage and user adoption. Release to production only happens after system and user acceptance testing and training is complete.
