A process is a description of the steps to take to create the intended result. Agile teams usually work closely together and therefore have little need to document how they are doing things. In addition to that, agile teams usually seek to automate repetitive tasks and have their process descriptions in form of scripts. But if the need arises, that the team decides to document how specific things should be done, the process document type is useful. It may also be the first attempt to describe a process before it is scripted. Some processes may not be scriptable, because the mainly describe the interaction between roles in the team. |
