Abstract

The six best practices of software development can be applied to the development of each component of a finished product or project. Each organization within an enterprise can design and implement a process that encompasses these best practices. And there are software development tools that enable each best practice.This paper describes the six best practices, the tools that enable them, and demonstrates how they can be applied to information development, as well as other all components of software development.This paper also provides an example that illustrates how documentation groups or organizations can benefit by following these best practices to ensure success for information development projects.
