Episode 14: Scrum, XP, SAFe, and the Agile Landscape
This episode focuses on specific Agile frameworks and practices you’ll need to recognize for the exam. We begin with Scrum, detailing its roles, events, and artifacts, and how it fosters transparency, inspection, and adaptation. We then explain Extreme Programming (XP), with its emphasis on technical excellence and continuous feedback, and the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), designed for applying Agile at the enterprise level. Each framework’s strengths and use cases are discussed in the context of project scale, complexity, and stakeholder needs.
In addition, we compare these frameworks’ communication styles, iteration planning, and adaptability to changing requirements. By understanding their differences and similarities, you’ll be better equipped to identify which framework fits a given scenario—whether in an exam question or a real project. This knowledge helps link methodology theory to practical execution, improving your agility in both test-taking and project delivery.
