What is Agile Software Development?

Agile Software Development is, quite simply, a better way to develop software. Where traditional approaches focus on rigid and discrete phases, many of which contribute little to the final product, Agile strives to maximize business value and maintain flexibility. Agile leverages cross-functional teams that include not only programmers and testers but also technical writers; business people; and, whenever possible, actual customers.
