Full textPrioritizing requirements is one of the most important and influential steps in the creation of a software product. The process is iterative; it takes place during the entire agile software development. Through prioritizing requirements, it is decided which requirements are to be developed, in which order, and why. The aim of this study is to investigate how companies that design software prioritize requirements and to identify which prioritization methods they might use during this process. The purpose of this study is to gain an understanding for why a well-balanced prioritization is important, which specific prioritization factors give value to a product, as well as identifying how these factors are related to the result. The purpose is also to investigate the difficulties that exist in a prioritization process, and to create an overview of some of the most used prioritization methods in agile software development. This study is conducted in collaboration with the software company Monitor ERP in order to analyze the company's prioritization processes used to develop their business management system Monitor. The method used is a qualitative study that consists of observations of meetings about prioritization processes, and semi-structured interviews. Processing of collected material was done by organizing, analyzing, and compiling results according to concepts and categories that emerged from the literature study. The results documents work processes, common goals, prioritization aspects and challenges in the requirements prioritization at Monitor ERP. A well-balanced prioritization proved to be important to be able to deliver the right functionality on time and to be able to provide dependable estimates of development, which in turn leads to customers gaining confidence in both the product and the company. A number of prioritization factors that give value to the Monitor software were identified, many of which contribute to increasing customer satisfaction and product quality. Monitor ERP does not use any specific prioritization methods, but the development philosophy Minimum Viable Product is used as a basis for their prioritization choices. During the prioritization process, challenges such as limited resources, unpredictable tasks, difficulties with time estimation, and a challenge in balancing customer value and customer focus were experienced.

Full textRequirements Engineering (RE) in Agile Software Development (ASD) is a challenge thatmany face and several techniques exist when doing so. One such technique is prototyping, when a model of a product is used to gather important information in software develop-ment. To describe how much a prototype resembles the product the notion of fidelity is used. The aim of this study is to contribute to research regarding prototyping in ASD,and to examine the effect of a prototype’s fidelity when using prototypes in discussionsduring RE. A case study is performed at the company Exsitec where staff are interviewedregarding prototyping in software development. Thereafter, two prototypes of low andhigh fidelity are developed and used in interviews as a basis for discussion. Based on thisstudy, the use of prototypes in software projects can help customers trust the process,improve communication with customers, and facilitate when trying to reach consensusamong different stakeholders. Furthermore, depending on how they are used, prototypescan contribute to understanding the big picture of the requirements and can also serve asdocumentation. The study also shows some, albeit subtle, differences in the informationcollected using prototypes with low and high fidelity. The use of a high fidelity prototypeseems to generate more requirements, but makes interviewees less likely to come up withlarger, more comprehensive requirement changes.

Full textGlobal software development (GSD) is a growing trend within the software industryand enables companies to reduce development costs, get access to expertise to lowercosts and increase flexibility and efficiency by constantly conducting softwaredevelopment across different time zones. Global software development combinedwith agile methodologies proves to be more common as successful agile projects canproduce software of higher quality that better meet user needs. Previous researchconcludes however that challenges and complications can arise in GSD environmentsfrom the perspective of the individuals working in geographically separated projectteams. The purpose of this study was to examine the problems and challenges thatindividuals experience in GSD environments where the agile Scrum methodology isapplied. The problems and challenges that have been examined relate to the followingareas: communication, language and cultural differences, group cohesion and teamspirit and knowledge management. The study also aims to explain and exemplify howthe challenges can be mitigated. A study has been conducted at a softwaredevelopment company in Växjö operating in the finance service industry. Aqualitative research method in the form of semi-structured interviews was conductedwith employees working in a global software development project.The conclusions drawn from the study are that individuals working within GSDprojects face several challenges. Communication related difficulties are experiencedpartly due to of the lack of informal communication, which results in failedcommunication, misunderstandings and long response times. In order to improve thecommunication, a combination of synchronous and asynchronous tools can be used aswell as screen sharing and video calls. Scrum activities such as daily scrums andretrospectives can also improve the communication within the project team.Regarding cultural differences, the study shows that it’s difficult to distinguishwhether challenges are related to cultural differences between the countries, orwhether it relates to differences in organizational cultures. The language-relateddifferences prove to be perceived as a barrier and lead to difficulties for individuals toexpress their ideas and thoughts, as well as understanding other individuals. Thelanguage differences also hamper the work because translation is required. Challengesrelated to group cohesion include that individual’s experience a lack of groupcohesion when project members are physically separated and that the group cohesiontends to increase in each separated group instead of the project team as a whole. Thegeographic dispersion also affects the trust within the project team. In order improvegroup cohesion and trust within the team informal gatherings are a key factor.Mediators are also seen as a key figure for linking the team members in physicallyseparated groups. Knowledge management is seen as an opportunity to benefit fromeach other's different backgrounds and experiences to increase the knowledge withinthe entire team. Challenges related to knowledge management are that the samemistakes can be committed several times in the project due to a lack of informalknowledge exchange. In order to improve knowledge management within the project,suggestions are given such as the use of code reviews, checklists and to organizeknowledge competitions to promote knowledge sharing within the project team.

Full textKravhanteringen är en viktig del av systemutvecklingsprocessen. Ett projekts framgång kan kopplas till hur detta genomförs. Även om flera studier pekar på att mer uppmärksamhet bör läggas på icke-funktionella krav är den primära fokusen i flera projekt fortfarande att identifiera funktionella krav. Speciellt prioriteringen av de icke-funktionella kraven har visat sig vara av stor betydelse för ett lyckat projekt. Den här rapporten undersöker grunderna i den agila kravhanteringen som involverar åsikter från experter i ett företag inom mjukvaruutveckling. Detta görs med hjälp av befintlig litteratur samt intervjuer med nyckelaktörer involverade i prioriteringen hos företaget. Jag undersöker prioriteringen av icke-funktionella krav och möjligheter för agil projektutveckling hos företaget. Följaktligen kommer resultatet bidra till att ge läsaren en allmän förståelse om det agila arbetssättet. Metodologin för den här rapporten följer ett kvalitativt tillvägagångssätt. Den baseras på sekundär data från litteratur och dokument, men även data insamlat via intervjuer. Resultaten medger tidigare upptäckter från litteraturen och visar med exempel verklig prioritering av icke-funktionella krav samt hur och varför prioriteringen är en komplex aktivitet hos ett företag. Dock är, enligt en av de viktigaste upptäckterna i den här rapporten, ett strikt användande av prioriteringstekniker inte den viktigaste nödvändigheten för ett lyckat projekt.

Full textA large number of businesses are emerging on the already competitive market which places high demands on the development of new innovative products for companies in the software industry. As a result, companies must change the structure of the organization and their methods. Due to this, they have to customize their product development in order to meet the requirements of the customers and the markets demand and maintain their competitiveness. One way for companies to stay competitive is by implementing agile working methodologies. This study aims to contribute with knowledge and investigate the processes of an agile transformation from decision-making to implementation in the software industry. The study has examined three problem statements related to the agile transformation in the software industry. Initially a literature review was performed to gain an insight into product development in the software industry and the agile working methodologies. Furthermore, a semi structured qualitative interview was conducted which involved four respondents from three companies that work with agile working methodologies and product development in the software industry. This qualitative study examined the challenges and possible opportunities that an agile transformation generates as well as the characteristics of a successful transformation. Based on the result of this study, several categories were chosen and treated as guidelines for how an organization in the software industry can approach the agile transformation and proceed with it successfully. The results of the study demonstrate that an agile transformation is a complex and time-consuming process. The many challenges involving the agile transformation includes that the agile working methodology often becomes dependent of a single key person, it also requires collaboration, an increased understanding of each other’s work as well as an adaptable mindset that is receptive towards change. However, the agile transformation enables advantages amongst all the companies such as an increased productivity and user satisfaction, decreased number of defects as well as a reduced leadtime. To succeed with an agile transformation, it is of importance that a company’s employees are receptive towards change and that the motive behind the transformation comes internally within the organization. In conclusion, the agile transformation improved and strengthened the companies’ software development.

Full textPair programming (PP) is a method for software development where two individuals share one computer and work side by side. This essay examines PP with regards to its effects and success factors. The essay also investigates how participants should communicate to achieve successful PP. The theoretical framework consists of previous research on PP and psychological theory on communication. This is examined with a qualitative method with material from five group interviews. The selected respondents come from software development companies that actively use agile methods and PP. The analysis concludes that several effects, success factors and guidelines from previous research are confirmed while some new are discovered. The discoveries include that there exists a disagreement about the effect on development time, that good communication is central for PP and that self- organizing teams are key for PP. Furthermore is a discussion by the authors on the contemporary use of PP.

Full textDistributed agile software development has never been more popular. Being able to work at home to avoid the commute or simply collaborating with developers abroad has never been easier. Third party tools such as Zoom and Google Meet makes communication easier than ever, and with the introduction of Visual Studio’s live share that enables real-time collaborative coding, distributed agile development truly has moved out of the offices. Yet, one of the core components of the agile working method is working face to face, meaning that one of the most efficient methods of communication is lost upon moving development into a distributed setting. Transitions towards new methods and settings are never easy, and as companies transition towards a remote and distributed future, software developers are potentially burdened by this change in environment. If companies had access to guidelines they could potentially experience a smoother transition. The problem is that there currently do not exist such guidelines. The purpose of this report is to create such guidelines with the goal of helping organizations transition towards distributed agile methods. In this report, the method utilized is a qualitative and explorative literature study, coupled with interviews aimed to explore the positive and negative experiences developers face when transitioning towards distributed methods. A literature study was used to help formulate the research criteria and the interview questions. In total, eight people that had experienced a recent transition towards distributed agile methods were interviewed. These interviews resulted in three general guidelines that can be used to ease the transition between a local and distributed work environment.

Full textPurpose – To create a deeper knowledge for how cultural differences influences the work with scrum, with specific focus on psychological safety. Method – A qualitative case study with an inductive approach have been carried out where semi-structured interviews together with observations have been used to collect data. Together with literature a content analysis was then preformed. Result – The study has identified three dimensions that are important to consider when working with scrum. These dimensions are Attitude to the human, Managing the human and Behaviors of the human, and these show how cultural differences creates different basis for psychological safety in scrum teams. Moreover, these insights can lead to improved work with scrum and in turn create more innovative and competitive scrum teams and organizations. Theoretical implications – The study contributes to the literature about psychological safety with empirical theory that shows how cultural differences creates different consequences for psychological safety. More specifically, it shows how these differences in culture are related to one another and affects each other. Another contribution of this study is that the result creates a deeper understanding of how the implementation of scrum and agile transitioning best can be done in a new culture, specifically that is characterized by high power distance, uncertainty avoidance and collectivism. Practical implications – The study shows that the identified differences in culture are related to each other, which means that all needs to be addressed to create a psychological safe scrum team in a new culture. Psychological safety is a prerequisite for self-organized teams, such as scrum teams, and thus the result is of interest for group managers in all companies and organizations working with scrum, both in different cultural contexts and with multinational teams as well as in global virtual teams.
