Discover how to plan an Agile software development project. In this course, you will study Agile iterations, planning, user stories, user roles, proxies, story points, and estimation. Learn to create, evaluate, and estimate a user story. See what is needed to create a release plan and identify project buffers for a given scenario. Notice how velocity impacts iteration plans. Find out what it means to have commitment-driven iteration plans. Consider Agile model driven development (AMDD) and activities common to the release planning phase of an Agile software development project. Examine Agile model features and how to implement them.
