Available last week, the Agile Software Development Glossary features definitions of terms like Agile Manifesto and Scrum as well as methodologies for developers to use to plan and scale agile processes. .

Agile development involves building software in short iterations, instead of mapping out everything completely in advance and relying heavily on documentation. Developers work with stakeholders when building applications via agile practices.

"As interest in agile continues to grow among the software development community, confusion about the meaning of new terms is also on the rise. AccuRev developed the Agile Glossary to address this key obstacle and to aid in accelerating Agile across the enterprise," said Damon Poole, AccuRev's founder and CTO, in a statement released by the company.

The company also plans to feature content from the glossary on the AccuRev Blog in the AccuRev blog post series. AccuRev is inviting feedback from software developers, with the blog series serving as a platform for that feedback.
