Which of the 12 principles fit into the 4 values that guide agile software development?

Agile software development is guided by four core values, as outlined in the Agile Manifesto. The 12 principles of agile software development, as outlined in the Agile Manifesto, support these values. Here’s how each principle aligns with the four values:

Value # 1: Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
– Principle # 4: Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project.
– Principle # 5: Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.
– Principle # 6: The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a development team is face-to-face conversation.
– Principle # 8: Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.
– Principle # 11: The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.

Value # 2: Delivery of working software over comprehensive documentation
– Principle # 1: Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through the early and continuous delivery of valuable software.
– Principle # 7: Working software is the primary measure of progress.
– Principle # 9: Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.
– Principle # 10: Simplicity – the art of maximizing the amount of work not done – is essential.

Value # 3: Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
– Principle # 4: Business people and developers must work together daily throughout the project.
– Principle # 8: Agile processes promote sustainable development. The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.

Value # 4: Responding to change over following a plan
– Principle # 2: Welcome changing requirements, even late in development.
– Principle # 3: Deliver working software frequently, with a preference for the shorter timescale.
– Principle # 10: Simplicity – the art of maximizing the amount of work not done – is essential.
– Principle # 12: At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.
