== History ==
[[Ward Cunningham]] (who also invented the wiki) created the ideas of extreme programming at Tektronix where he brought a young programmer [[Kent Beck]] to work with him on this. Kent then useddeveloped extreme programming during his work on the [[Chrysler Comprehensive Compensation System]] (C3) payroll [[project]].<ref name=Cworld92/> Beck became the C3 [[Project management|project leader]] in March 1996. He began to refine the development methodology used in the project and wrote a book on the methodology (''Extreme Programming Explained'', published in October 1999).<ref name="Cworld92">[http://www.computerworld.com/article/2585634/app-development/extreme-programming.html Computerworld-appdev-92 "Extreme Programming", ''Computerworld'' (online), December 2001].
