“…Next, we present some of the studies that highlight the importance of artifacts as an important channel of communication between different areas [23]. Beyer, Holtzblatt and Baker [21] state that, by using conceptual diagrams and mockups, team communication can be facilitated. In their study, task models were used to show the scope of issues from all customers to the entire team.…”

“…Pre-Planning [27], [38], Pre Release Planning [27], Span Plan [22], and Plan Parallel Iteration [46] were also considered as Planning since their main goal was to define what would integrate an iteration. For the planning period, UI design and user stories are delivered to the development team and they can use them to estimate how much effort they need for the next iteration [21]. Cards are the most used artifact on planning event, as seen in Figure 2.…”

Abstract-The integration of Agile and User-Centered Design methods is a fundamental condition to improve the quality of software products. However, one of the main problems faced to establish this integration on a day-to-day basis is how to improve communication among the invariably distinct involved teams. We believe that the artifacts involved in the development process could be used to support and increase teams' communication.To better understand this scenario, we performed a systematic mapping study on artifacts and their role in the communication between Agile and User-Centered Design fields. Through the analysis of 56 papers dealing with this specific topic, we present the artifacts used for communication in these approaches and software development events when they are used. The analyzed studies reinforced our beliefs about the importance of artifacts to improve teams' communication.

“…However, agile team members generally do not have previous knowledge of applying usability techniques and developers have limited time and work to a tight schedule. We have found that, in order to solve these two problems, Beyer et al [30] adapt contextual inquiry in two ways. First, the user interface team compensates for the training gaps of the other participants.…”

Abstract-Context: Over the last decade there has been a growing interest in the integration of agile software development process (ASDP) and user-centred design (UCD). However, there are no papers that study which usability techniques related to requirements engineering are being adopted in the ASDP, and there are no formalized proposals for their adoption. Objective: Identify which techniques related to requirements engineering activities are being adopted in the ASDP and determine how they are being adopted. Method: We have conducted a systematic mapping study (SMS) to retrieve the literature reporting the application of usability techniques in the ASDP. We analysed these techniques using a catalogue of techniques compiled by software engineering researchers. We then determined the manner in which the techniques that are being used in the ASDP were adopted. Results: The agile community is very much interested in adopting usability techniques. The most used techniques are Personas, contextual inquiry and prototyping. Conclusions: This research offers an overview of the adoption of usability techniques related to requirements engineering in ASDPs and reports how they are being adopted. We found that some of the techniques are being adapted for adoption.
