A Preliminary Checklist for Capturing Baseline Situations in Studying the Impacts of Agile Practices Introduction

Nurdiani, Indira ; Börstler, Jürgen ; Fricker, Samuel A. and Petersen, Kai (2018) 6th ACM/IEEE International Workshop on Conducting Empirical Studies in Industry, CESI 2018, held at the 40th International Conference on Software Engineering, ICSE 2018 p.25-28
Abstract

To assess the benefits of introducing Agile practices, it is important to get a clear understanding of the baseline situation, i.e. the situation before their introduction. Without a clear baseline, we cannot properly assess the extent of impacts, both positive and negative, of introducing Agile practices. This paper provides a preliminary guideline to help researchers in capturing and reporting baseline situations. The guideline has been developed through the study of literature and interviews with industry practitioners, and validated by experts in academia.
