Abstract
The 21st century started as the era of agile methods and technologies which combine adaptable and highly flexible methods designed to help teams to develop applications faster and safer. The challenge is to adapt just enough technology to enhance the performance of teams which are using agile methods and to avoid going back to weak workflow ideas of the industrial era. In this paper, I will present some relevant agile tools that could improve every software development project and I will also mention the features and criteria used for evaluating currently existing tools. Finally, I will propose a classification model to the appropriate agile tool selection, but keep in mind that in order to be successful, organizations and teams do need to deal first with the issues that accompany product complexity and growing teams.

It's foolproof - as long as you enter everything correctly and it requires no upfront infrastructure costs, offeringflexible subscription plans, helping you keep your technology costs lo
Even tough JIRA is a powerful tool, the product owner told me they never gave up on simple tools like whiteboard, high performance tree and ceremonies which are very useful. o Whiteboard There is no longer human-computer interaction, because you see physically how the tickets/post-it are moved on the board from one category to another according to the used methodology: Scrum or Kanban
Your relationship with your team workers is improved because discussions/debates are started on different issues. o High performance tree It is another visual management tool, with whom each person in the team express his/her mood, sticking a leaf to the tree according to it
Summary
The 21st century started as the era of agile methods and technologies which combine adaptable and highly flexible methods designed to help teams to develop applications faster and safer. The main purpose is to establish a solid base of the existing literature, and to investigate questions like: “Why do you need an agile tool or how can it change your business?” or “How can agile development tools improve IT project success?” Relevant data regarding my research about the use of agile methods is represented by one of the most important tools in social science: surveys. [5] Surveys, especially the annual ones by AmbySoft and VersionOne, were very important to my research, representing important studies for measuring agile methods They proved that customers' dynamic demands and the increasing intensity of global competition determined the organizations to adopt agile principle and use special tools, but none of the mentioned research provided a methodology for right tool selection. A customer development portal helps project managers carry out software walk-throughs and development teams benefit as they can ask for feedback soon after a release. [5]
