The components interact to deliver the consistent user-facing behavior that constitutes the Features. Teams build systems out of components to provide scalability, flexibility, common functions re-use, and maintainability. So when creating <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visual-paradigm.com\/scrum\/feature-team-vs-component-team-in-agile\/\">agile teams<\/a> what should they do:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They should be optimized for features or ready to deploy working software?<\/li>\n<li>They should cut features into vertical slices so that they can deliver value faster with few dependencies?<\/li>\n<li>They should cut features into a group of reusable components to ensure stable, high-quality and extendible systems parts?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Organizing with Component Teams<\/h3>\n<p>A component team is an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visual-paradigm.com\/scrum\/what-is-scrum-team\/\">Agile Team<\/a> whose primary area of concern is focused on a specific component, or set of components, of the system. They leverage their technical skills and interest and focus on building robust components that provide for reliability, separation of concerns, foster re-use, and improve testability.<\/p>\n<p>The traditional approach is to break down the product more or less logically and meaningfully into components and to assign component teams to them. However, these components are completely irrelevant to the customer\u2019s point of view. The big disadvantage to the component organization is obvious: it slows value flow. A majority of system features create dependencies that require cooperation between component teams to build, deploy, and ultimately release. Teams spend much of their time discussing dependencies between teams and testing behavior across components rather than being able to deliver end-user value.<\/p>\n<h3>Organizing with Feature Teams<\/h3>\n<p>A feature Team approach is now almost universally accepted way for organizing their teams, as opposed to the technology stack team, especially, in the continuous delivery approach, it emphasizes features (i.e. a vertical slice of system) that solve user needs which can typically accelerate value delivery of any features or working software and shorten the feedback loop from the real users. A feature team would have all the skills to perform the necessary task-level work to get the job done. In particular, assuming a three-tier architecture, team members would work on tasks related to the GUI, middle-tier, and database parts of this story.<\/p>\n<p>As suggested by Craig Larman (the author of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visual-paradigm.com\/scrum\/10-principles-of-less-framework\/\">LeSS Framework<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>\u201ca feature team is a long-lived, cross-functional team that completes many end-to-end customer features, one by one.. advantages include increased value throughput, increased learning, simplified planning, reduced waste\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Vertical Slice of User Stories for customer-Facing Features<\/h3>\n<p>When we have a feature team, it is important to note vertical splitting of user stories in the product backlog is quite crucial for the team, so that user stories are broken down in such a way that smaller items still result in working, demonstrable, software or a specific working feature useful for the user. In other words, a vertical slice means a bit of every layer. Again as an example, a new feature request like \u201cshowing x information on the main screen\u201d would contain these work bits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Work in the UX\/UI that will display the information<\/li>\n<li>Work in the service layer to transform the information<\/li>\n<li>Work in the database layer to store\/fetch the information.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Horizontal Slice<\/h3>\n<p>A horizontal slice tends to decompose problems into technical layers which may seem to match well with the technical skills of team members, i.e. they\u2019re split amongst a database team, a UI team, and a server team each of which is responsible for their tasks.<\/p>\n<p>Even though we may call these horizontal slices user stories, and create them in form of user stories, they are in fact can\u2019t deliver the value to the end customer without interaction or integration with other layers, components or other building blocks of the software system. It is like slicing a cake horizontally, which does not allow for users to have the perfect bite.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visual-paradigm.com\/guide\/agile-software-development\/the-best-automated-less-framework-tool\/\">The Best Automated LeSS Framework Tool<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visual-paradigm.com\/scrum\/how-to-manage-multi-scrum-teams-with-less-framework\/\">How to Manage Multiple Scrum Teams with LeSS Framework<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visual-paradigm.com\/scrum\/top-10-less-framework-resources\/\">Top 10 Large-Scale Scrum Framework Resources<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.visual-paradigm.com\/features\/large-scale-scrum-software\/\">Large-Scale Scrum Framework Tool<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><iframe style=\"width: 100%; height: 700px; border: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/online.visual-paradigm.com\/share\/book\/feature-team-vs-component-team-in-agile-yptkbagtf?enforceShowPromotionBar=true\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5814,"template":"","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_title":"","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"A component team is an Agile Team whose primary area of concern is focused on a specific component, or set of components, of the system.
