Line 24: '''Other Similar Methods:''' Cowboy coding;, often used as a derogatory term, has been confused with other software development methodologies which have solved the issues surrounding cowboy coding. [[Extreme Programming]] for example also does not emphasise documentation. However [[Extreme Programming]] does use methods to document user requirements and guide the software development team. It also addresses code quality through unit tests and peer review, and is thus quite different. [[agile software development\|Agile development]]'s frequent reevaluation of plans, emphasis on face-to-face communication, and relatively sparse use of documents sometimes cause people to confuse it with cowboy coding. Agile teams, however, do follow defined (and often very disciplined and rigorous) processes, something that distinguishes agile approaches from cowboy coding.
