Abstract

Out of the many revolutions in software development methodologies over the past years, no new methodology withstands completely in one way or the other. The failure rate of projects is still very high in spite of so much of revolutionary methodologies come in existence. Unsuccessful projects not only mean the incomplete projects even after deadline or outdated projects but there may be several other scenarios like project did not meet up the real requirements or lack of ability to deal with the changing requirements etc. In this kind of circumstances, projects were never successfully utilized, and another high percentage of projects again required massive rework to be utilizable. Factors like changing requirements and late testing and integration are few of the main causes of this high percentage of failure.This paper reveals how agile development is a way out to the issues linked with traditional software development. Agile development primarily focuses on the rapid delivery of enterprise worth in the form of working software.
