Project Methodologies | Agile Scrum

When we start a project, there are several ways that we can use to continue it. In the last post (click), I mentioned the methodologies that project teams use. Of them the mostly used methodology was the traditional method which was the waterfall method. 

There were several steps and those were fulfilled by the time and the product was made. But when there comes to the testing phase and an error is found, then we have to go back to the place where the error occurred and fix it and follow the other steps as well. That's a very hard and time consuming work. Then there came the iterative waterfall model where the errors in a phase is tested after it is implemented. That was good but to make changes, we had to follow the process again.

So to overcome all these, there came a new trend AGILE. When we take the simple word Agile, that is about flexibility and speed. You might know games with agility heroes and what they can do. Most of those agility heroes start small and becomes the carry of the team in the mid and late game. So this new agile method is about,

  • Teamwork
  • Delivery Value Early
  • Quality
  • Customer Collaboration 
  • Responding to Change


Scrum comes under agile. Here there are 3 categories in Scrum Framework. 

  1. Rolls
  2. Ceremonies
  3. Artifacts


This is the process of a scrum in a nutshell.


I know it is boring to read facts so the following video will be showing you all the aspects that you need to know about scrum and how easy it is.
So I believe that you got some idea of how Agile Scrum works. And this is the method that we used to do our 3rd year project. Unlike the last projects I really feel involved and efficient because we use Scrum. 

My next post will be on leadership and the roll the leader plays in a project.
