Augment Scrum/Kanban With XP Practices

Simple design: Write minimal code that satisfies the user story

Small releases: Develop in a series of small, frequently

updated versions

Testing: Write the tests first and then write the code, e.g., TDD, BDD

Refactoring: Regularly adjust and improve the code

Pair work: Code and tests developed by two people working together

Continuous integration (CI): Provide continuous feedback on the

readiness of the solution

Collective ownership: No one person owns or is responsible for

individual code segments
