Even though agile is meant to be flexible and enable room for quick shifts and pivots, there’s a long tradition of “just enough” in terms of process, design and testing. The point is that you need some foundational process, even if it’s minimal. At a high level, most agile development processes look similar, even Kanban or Scrum. Both prioritize quick turnarounds and continuous refinements that deliver results. Most systems, even minimal processes will have some flavor of these five fundamental steps:

• New Tickets
• Development
• Review
• Testing
• Deployment
