"The waterfall model is a breakdown of project activities into linear sequential phases, where each phase depends on the deliverables of the previous one and corresponds to a specialization of tasks. [...] The waterfall development model originated in the manufacturing and construction industries; where the highly structured physical environments meant that design changes became prohibitively expensive much sooner in the development process."

Gannt Chart

User Story
"In software development and product management, a user story is an informal, natural language description of one or more features of a software system. User stories are often written from the perspective of an end user or user of a system. They are often recorded on index cards, on Post-it notes, or digitally in project management software."

Kanban
"Kanban (Japanese 看板, signboard or billboard) is a lean method to manage and improve work across human systems. [...] Work items are visualized to give participants a view of progress and process, from start to finish—usually via a Kanban board. Work is pulled as capacity permits, rather than work being pushed into the process when requested."

User Story as Promise
"The Product Owner will present her set of user stories she would like to discuss within a timebox, and is essentially asking the Scrum team to poke holes in her logic. Personally, I’ve gone into a Grooming meeting with one set of user stories, and based on the feedback I received, realized I had to reconstruct my User Stories in a way that made sense to the Development and QA team."

Story points and estimation
"Involving everyone (developers, designers, testers, deployers... everyone) on the team is key. Each team member brings a different perspective on the product and the work required to deliver a user story. For example, if product management wants to do something that seems simple, like support a new web browser, development and QA need to weigh in because their experience has taught them what dragons may be lurking beneath the surface."

Story points and estimation
"Story points are a unit of measure for expressing an estimate of the overall effort that will be required to fully implement a product backlog item or any other piece of work. [...] The raw values we assign are unimportant. What matters are the relative values. A story that is assigned a 2 should be twice as much as a story that is assigned a 1."
