agile development methodology values simplicity, and often makes use of test-driven development and refactoring of code. code example

Example: what is test driven development

In Test Driven Development Tests are created before actual code.
Than developers run the (UNIT) tests and Tests fail (because there is no code)
Than developer Write the code to pass the tests and Run the tests again.
Tests will PASS, against MVP(minimum viable product) code. 
lastly they REFACTOR YOUR CODE -> RE-DO ALL STEPS
