In agile development, the construction of a software project is divided into multiple sub-projects, and the results of each sub-project have been tested and have the characteristics of integration and operation. In other words, a large project is divided into multiple small projects that are interrelated but can also be run independently, and completed separately. During this process, the software is always in a usable state.
