A process in Agile development where a set of tasks or features is completed within a specific time frame, often referred to as a sprint.
Iteration is like taking a journey in stages—you travel a certain distance, review your progress, and then plan the next leg of the journey.
In Agile development, a team completes an iteration by developing, testing, and delivering a set of features or improvements.
Iterations allow teams to deliver work incrementally, gather feedback, and make adjustments in subsequent iterations, leading to better quality and alignment with user needs.
Iterative development reduces the risk of large-scale failures by enabling continuous delivery and adaptation, leading to faster time-to-market and improved product quality.
Keep iterations short and focused; review progress at the end of each iteration; involve stakeholders in iteration planning and reviews.
Overloading iterations with too many tasks; not reviewing and learning from previous iterations; failing to adapt based on feedback.
Iteration velocity, number of completed tasks, feedback integration rate.
