Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

The Manifesto for Agile Software Development, also known as the Agile Manifesto, is a shared set of values and principles intended to improve software development1. The Agile Manifesto was created in 2001 by a group of 17 software practitioners who wanted to find a better way of developing software than the traditional, documentation-driven, and heavyweight processes.The Agile Manifesto states four values and twelve principles that guide the agile approach to software development, which emphasizes individuals and interactions, working software, customer collaboration, and responding to change2.The Agile Manifesto is not a specific methodology or practice, but rather a philosophy that can be applied to various agile frameworks, such as Scrum, Kanban, XP, and SAFe3.

I'm with you all on B. The Agile Manifesto is the guiding light for Agile, not a specific methodology. Though I have to say, if I see another question about Scrum, I might just throw my laptop out the window. Enough with the Scrum already!

I agree with Janine. The Agile Manifesto is all about the values and principles, not just a specific set of practices. It's a holistic approach to software development, not tied to any one methodology.

Ah, the Agile Manifesto, the holy grail of software development! This is a tricky one, but I think the answer is B. It's a shared set of values and principles intended to improve software development, not just a set of practices from Scrum.
