Integrate or Die: UX on Agile Development Projects

"The main change for UX practitioners who must support an Agile team is in mindset. Good general user experience knowledge will provide an understanding of how traditional design and evaluation methods must change to meet the different focus of an agile team, but ultimately UX practitioners must believe in themselves and embrace agile in order to be successful"
Chris Nodder & Jakob Nielsen

After 13 years as a UX practitioner I have found myself in the fortunate/unfortunate position of having to adapt (once again) to a new project management methodology. Agile has been a challenge but I have to say that the experience has been very positive and I would like to share it with my colleagues at UXLx.
