Integração de ferramentas para gestão de projetos scrum

Abstract

With the steady growth in the adoption of agile methodologies in software development projects, specially the Scrum methodology, has also increased the number of tools that support the processes, actors, events and artifacts of the methodology. However, many of these tools include only part of what is proposed by Scrum, thus it is necessary to manage its processes and artifacts in more than one tool. In addition, these tools work in isolation, that is, there is no integration between them, which results in various problems, such as duplication of work, information inconsistency, omission of some processes and artifacts of the methodology. In other to resolve these problems, some of these tools provide some sort of generic integration with other tools. However, during the research we did not find any reference to a solution or integration tools that support Scrum. Therefore, this paper aims to present an architecture that serves as a reference for future systems that integrate Scrum tools, thus solving or mitigating the problems caused by lack of integration raised by this work.
