Definition
The method used to create and evolve the product, service, or result: predictive, iterative, incremental, adaptive, or hybrid.
Development approach in plain English
Imagine a kitchen that plates food every two weeks: the menu (backlog) gets clarified before cooking, the chefs only commit to what fits the shift, and the plate doesn't leave until it meets a shared "done" checklist. Development approach is one of the rules that keeps that kitchen from chaos. Hold onto this precise job description: The method used to create and evolve the product, service, or result: predictive, iterative, incremental, adaptive, or hybrid. On a stem, name whether Development approach is about timing, ownership, measurement, or delivery style — then eliminate the answer that borrows a cousin concept from the wrong phase.
