The Application of ISO 9001 to Agile Software Development

چکیده
In this paper we discuss how to reconcile agile development’s focus on speed and lean development with ISO 9001’s need for documentation, traceability and control. We see no need to change neither ISO 9001 nor the agile concept. Instead, we see a need to be flexible when using terms such as planning and evidence of conformance. It is true that we can include everything in agile development by making it a requirement but there is a limit to how many documents we can require from an agile process without destroying the very concept of agility.
