“…Working on this user story will gradually fulfill the needs of Epic that have been previously defined. Spike was originally applied to Extreme Programming, where its use was to create prototypes, conduct exploration, investigation and experiment (Al Hashimi and Gravell, 2019). It needs to be done to find out how complex is the program/application that will be developed using the part that is being explored.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to provide an automatic text summarization experience using the extractive method within an application implemented on Android. Design/methodology/approach Scrum framework is used to keep pace with trends and enhance the development process of this application. The code implementation using Flutter Software Development Kit in client-side and Python with Flask on server-side is aimed to have better integration and maintenance process. The authors had done black-box testing and white-box testing to ensure the application runs as expected for both the behavior and code. Findings This application will provide full functionality to perform the summarization process, starting from the input to the presentation of the results of text summarization. Originality/value Besides summarizing text, the application is also capable of copying and saving the result into the device.

“…In Agile terminology, Kent Beck coined the name "spike"a simple task aimed at answering a question or gathering information. Spikes are also described in Leffingwell [15]: "Spikes, another invention of XP, are a special type of story used to drive out risk and uncertainty in a user story or other project facet," and in Al Hashimi [23].…”

“…The task-based assessment of exposure during schedule estimation, described here, makes it feasible to flag tasks with exposures for priority treatment. When a high risk task cannot be done early, the risk part should be addressed as a separate spike [23] [14].…”
