Analisando o uso de práticas Scrum em empresas de João Pessoa: um Estudo exploratório

Abstract

This article presents an exploratory research intended to better understand the software development processes based on the Scrum agile methodology that have been used and their practices. For this initial study, we have analyzed companies that develop software in João Pessoa. A survey was performed by email and phone to collect some data and there was also a field research conducted using a semistructured interview. The results show that vast majority of the companies in the region that we researched are using agile methodologies based on Scrum and several of its practices, such as small teams and an iterative and incremental process using small sprints.
