Agile Development Methodologies - FDD

Feature-Driven Development follows specific practices such as 'Component/Class Ownership' and 'Regular Builds'. It is short-iteration, model-driven agile development software procedure. It starts with a clear model shape then for 2 weeks, it goes into design-and-build-by-feature iterations. These features are usually lightweight but useful for the client's use. The 8 principles that rule this process are domain object modeling, component / class ownership, inspections, regular builds, development by feature, feature teams, configuration, management, and progress and results visibility. Unlike other Agile processes, FDD already has a short specific description of a feature that should be included in each phase.
