Metodologias ágeis na gestão de projetos de TI: uma análise da perspectiva dos desenvolvedores

Abstract

Agile methodologies are widely used in projects in the field of Information Technology, providing efficient practices for executing processes throughout project development. However, even with nearly two decades since their dissemination, there is still a need to understand the reality of work teams and the significance of the changes brought about by these methodologies. Among the main challenges faced by agile teams today, the lack of understanding by team members stands out. In this context, this work aims to investigate, through an analysis, the practical use of agile methodologies from the perspective of developers. The focus is to identify which agile practices are actually used in the reality of an agile team and how developers perceive the benefits of these methodologies, considering the views of developers from different companies. To achieve this goal, a literature review was conducted on the most widely used agile practices today, followed by interviews with developers. Based on the collected information, the main agile practices used in practice and the changes they brought to project management and development were identified. Finally, the work analyzes the practices used in developers' teams and compares them with the theory, listing the adaptations that teams have made to fit the methodologies into their reality. Thus, the aim is to contribute to the improvement of agile methodologies and the enhancement of IT project management, taking into account the perspective of developers.
