“…[8] Proposed technique is also very good as their target software methodology is agile development and they cover different stakeholders. Finally, it is concluded that good results have been achieved by the efforts made so far but still, there is need for improvement in techniques and more [4]sophisticated tools are needed to increase the accuracy of results to cope with the requirements of real-time systems.…”

Release Notes (RNs) play a vital role in software development. RNs are one of the essential artifacts about a new release of the software. Despite their importance, RNs are usually generated manually. Generating them manually prone to errors and time consuming as it contains a description of new features, bug fixes, license changes, deprecated libraries, new Application Program Interface (API), and other changes made to the software. There are different tools available to generate RNs automatically from issue tracker and source code repositories. Researchers are working on the automation of RNs from decades to enhance the software development process. In this paper, we present the algorithms published by different researchers, available plugins, and tools in the market for this task. This survey of the past techniques used for the automation of RNs are useful and broad background knowledge of this research field to future researchers.

“…Creating these notes manually is a challenging and effort prone task, which generally takes 8 hours [3]. Emergency updates often occur in projects, especially in mobile applications, due to deployment issues or other essential requirements/features [4]. Keeping track of these changes in such cases is hectic.…”

“…[S03] studied updates in the Google Play Store by examining more than 44,000 updates of over 10,000 mobile apps, from where 1,000 were identified as emergency updates. After studying the characterirstics of the updates, the authors found that the emergency updates often have a long lifetime (i.e., they are rarely followed by another emergency update) and that updates preceding emergency updates often receive a higher ratio of negative reviews than the emergency updates [84].…”

Context. Modern software projects require the proper allocation of human, technical and financial resources. Very often, project managers make decisions supported only by their personal experience, intuition or simply by mirroring activities performed by others in similar contexts. Most attempts to avoid such practices use models based on lines of code, cyclomatic complexity or effort estimators, thus commonly supported by software repositories which are known to contain several flaws.Objective. Demonstrate the usefulness of process data and mining methods to enhance the software development practices, by assessing efficiency and unveil unknown process insights, thus contributing to the creation of novel models within the software development analytics realm.Method. We mined the development process fragments of multiple developers in three different scenarios by collecting Integrated Development Environment (IDE) events during their development sessions. Furthermore, we used process and text mining to discovery developers' workflows and their fingerprints, respectively.Results. We discovered and modeled with good quality developers' processes during programming sessions based on events extracted from their IDEs. We unveiled insights from coding practices in distinct refactoring tasks, built accurate software complexity forecast models based only on process metrics and setup a method for characterizing coherently developers' behaviors. The latter may ultimately lead to the creation of a catalog of software development process smells.Conclusions. Our approach is agnostic to programming languages, geographic location or development practices, making it suitable for challenging contexts such as in modern global software development projects using either traditional IDEs or sophisticated low/no code platforms.

“…Con el paso del tiempo, la transformación tecnológica en el área de la telefonía celular dio lugar a un nuevo mercado en el desarrollo de software. A finales del año 2007 y comienzos del 2008, surgieron las primeras tiendas de aplicaciones móviles y para Julio del 2015, de acuerdo con (Hassan et al, 2017), existen más de 3.9 millones de aplicaciones publicadas en las tiendas de aplicaciones. Esto ha ocasionado una gran conmoción en el área de desarrollo de software, estimulando un crecimiento exponencial en la demanda de aplicaciones para distintas clases de dispositivos.…”

Since the origin of cell phones, the development of mobile applications has grown exponentially, opening a new field of research in the field of software engineering. The need to produce an application with high quality indices has led to the study and formulation of new methodologies that cover all the corresponding aspects related to quality and production time.The objective of this research is to carry out an exhaustive study to extract relevant data from each framework through bibliographic and field research for the construction of a state of the art that verifies through an analysis the methodology indicated for the development of mobile applications. The result obtained from the analysis shows that, despite finding a certain similarity between the methodologies with agile principles, Scrum is characterized as the indicated methodology for the development of mobile applications. This fact gave rise to the emergence of new software development methodologies with approaches to the so-called agile practices whose objective is the production of quality software.
