The Iron Laws of Software Development

The Iron Laws of Software Development

  • You can't give an estimate until you've come up with a design.
  • You can't come up with a design until you understand the requirements.
  • You won't really understand the requirements until you've finished the project.
  • By the time you finish the project, the requirements will have changed.

[thanks/apologies to Scott McKellar of SWBell]
