What are some solo developer programming methodologies for smaller projects?

Despite this, the general consensus seems to be that Agile can most definitely be adopted by the solo developer. Master's theses have been written about it and even XP has been adapted for use by one person (minus the pair programming, of course).
Progamming and testing have often been thought of as individual pursuits. Headphones on, eyes focused on the monitor—this is “solo programming.” Yet today, most developers and testers find themselves in the midst of a larger team working on complex systems containing countless interactions.
Waterfall, Agile, Lean, Iterative, Prototyping, DevOps, Spiral or V-model? The system development life cycle, known as the SDLC, is the industry-standard approach to managing phases of an engineering project. Think of it as the equivalent to the scientific method for software development and other IT initiatives.
Just about any development methodology will work in a solo environment except for those that explicitly require a team (such as side-by-side programming). But even then you could get around that by just creating some imaginary friends/teammates or developing a multiple personality disorder.
