Abstract

Agile principles and modern iterative software development practices suggest that a software development team should consist of six to nine members. However, because of the complexity or size of a software project or the demanding client deadlines, you might have to accommodate more team members to meet the required targets. In this sort of a scenario, what Agile practices suggest is to divide the software project into modules, which can be handled by ideally sized Agile teams of six to nine people. This means multiple teams work together to achieve the project goal.
