Last minute adjustments characterize software development due to many reasons including not testing thoroughly. XP （Practicing Extreme Programming）, which is an agile software development methodology, gives rise to the issue of pair programming. This paper aims at discussing the strengths and weaknesses of an Extreme Programming methodology by examining the characteristics of the 12 software development practices of the XP methodology. Working together will incur in a highly reliable functionalities to release. Furthermore, moving people around will allow the team to keep track of the whole project.展开更多

However, the user stories in the XP agile methodology do not provide auditors with enough evidence that certain steps and activities have been performed in compliance with ISO 9001. This paper proposes an extension to the user story, based on four sub processes related to the CMMI-DEV model: 1) identification of the source of the user story;2) categorization of the non functional requirements;3) identification of the user story relationships;and 4) prioritization of the user stories. These sub processes are aligned with the XP release planning phase, and enhance the ability of user stories to accumulate the information that is mandatory for achieving ISO 9001 certification.展开更多
