An Introduction to Agile Practices: Why Small Release in Scrum?

Too Long; Didn't Read

Extreme Programming promotes small releases through continuous integration(CI) and other extreme programming practices. Small releases are essential for your XP as they show you the accuracy of your team towards the project. Small Releases help deliver a small working increment in a few weeks, so the Development Team can do a weekly review of the software. The idea that instead of having a big release at the end of a long development cycle, we try to release very often, comes from Extreme Programming. Small releases deliver real business value in a very short cycle.
