Project Management & Agile · Foundational

Incremental Development

Approach that delivers a solution in successive usable pieces, each adding functionality.

Definition

Each increment builds on the previous one and is potentially usable, allowing early value and feedback. Agile approaches are both iterative and incremental.

Example

An e-commerce site launches with browse and checkout, then adds wish lists and reviews in later increments.

Exam tip

Agile = iterative + incremental; know how each differs alone.
