It goes through several methodolgies and gives a great overview of each. The guide covers Agile, Extreme Programming, Scrum, Lean, Feature Driven Development (FDD), and Agile Unified Process (AUP), as well as some methodologies that we don’t cover in this specialization like Crystal and Dynamic Systems Development Method. On the last page of Part 2, they highlight and compare the strengths and weaknesses of each of these methodologies.
