“…We observe that most of the initiatives that deal with the integration of UX in software development are focused on agile methods. Systematic reviews identified recurring themes and patterns of the most common activities and artifacts used by teams when integrating UX in agile processes [13] and some maturity models for guiding companies with this integration start to appear [29], [31].…”

Abstract-Since its infancy, Model Driven Engineering (MDE) research has primarily focused on technical issues. Although it is becoming increasingly common for MDE research papers to evaluate their theoretical and practical solutions, extensive usability studies are still uncommon. We observe a scarcity of User eXperience (UX)-related research in the MDE community, and posit that many existing tools and languages have much room for improvement with respect to UX. Industrial feedback indicates that UX is an important factor in the dissemination and adoption of new technologies, where UX is a key focus area in the software development industry. We consider this a fundamental problem that needs to be addressed in the community if MDE is going to gain widespread use. In this vision paper, we explore how and where UX fits into MDE by considering motivating use cases that revolve around different dimensions of integration: model integration, tool integration, and integration between process and tool support. These use cases help us to illuminate MDErelated UX challenges. Based on the literature and our collective experience in research and industrial collaborations, we propose future directions for addressing these challenges.

“…Recent work has suggested patterns for the integration of ASD and UCD [161] and a framework Table 10 List of additional codes that were omitted in Fig. 4 for integrating practices [153]. However, the prioritization of nonfunctional usability requirements in comparison to functional requirements remains challenging [156,162].…”

“…It is a compilation of joint research conducted by agile usability researchers and industry and concludes with four requirements to be met for effectively integrating ASDP and UCD: (i) appropriate prioritization of the goals driving design decisions, (ii) equilibrium between design decisions reflecting both high-and low-level objectives, (iii) synchronization of development and usability activities, and (iv) incremental development of the user interface, maintaining a design that is consistent as a whole. The AGILEUX model, proposed by Peres et al [71], details a process integrating ASDP and UCD for small enterprises and the model focuses on the first level of maturity where seeks to establish a standard process within an organization by defining agile practices, principles, techniques and artifacts of user experience.…”

Background: Interest in the integration of the agile software development process (ASDP) and user-centred design (UCD) has grown over the last decade. However, there are not many papers that study this issue holistically and uncover the current state of this integration. Aim: This study sets out to answer the following research question: What is the current state of integration between agile processes and usability? Method: We conduct a systematic mapping study (SMS). We analyze the articles and the results were cross checked by the authors, and any disagreements were discussed and resolved in meetings. Results: We retrieved a total of 161 Primary Studies. There are very few papers that study the literature holistically and report the current state of usability in the ASDP. Conclusions: We categorized according to four criteria: process, practice, team and technology integration. The largest group refers to process integration with a total of 76 Primary Studies.
