15.13 Final Words on REM in Agile Projects
Agile projects shun formality and excessive documentation. Therefore, it does not
make use of pre-defined formats or templates and therefore, is not presented in this
book. Each organization or for that matter, each project can devise its own formats
and templates to suit their unique project needs.
The practice of requirements establishment, tracing and management vary from
organization to organization and perhaps project to project. Freedom to the
development team is the mantra of the agile methodologies.
