“…For example, Scrum is focused on project management and this methodology has natural advantages in development of mobile applications based on having a disciplined and limited scope, high end user interaction, and a condensed time-to-market. Mobile companies and even individual developers are following a Scrum-like process as they develop mobile applications [12,13,14,15].…”

With the increasing popularity and demand for mobile applications, there has been a significant increase in the number of mobile application development projects. Highly volatile requirements of mobile applications require adaptive software development methods. The Agile approach is seen as a natural fit for mobile application and there is a need to explore various Agile methodologies for the development of mobile applications. This paper evaluates how adopting various Agile approaches improves the development of mobile applications and if they can be used in order to provide more tailor-made process improvements within an organization. A survey related to mobile application development process improvement was developed. The use of various Agile approaches for success in mobile application development were evaluated by determining the significance of the most used Agile engineering paradigms such as XP, Scrum, and Lean. The findings of the study show that these Agile methods have the potential to help deliver enhanced speed and quality for mobile application development.

“…Moreover, delayed feedback can be effective if it is provided in a timely manner, such as just before a milestone or a specific date [29]. For example, software development teams often hold a daily Scrum in order to improve the communications among team members [30]. This type of daily event provides team members with not only necessary feedback but also a routine that helps set the pace for task completion.…”

This paper describes a study that examines the effect of cohesion-based feedback on a team member's behaviors in a global software development project. Chat messages and forum posts were collected from a software development project involving students living in the US and Mexico. Half of the teams in the project received feedback in the form of a graphical representation that displayed the group's cohesion level, while the other teams received no feedback. The nature of the group interactions as well as the linguistic content of such interactions was then analyzed and compared. Results from this analysis show statistically significant d ifferences b etween t he feedback a nd n on-feedback c onditions. M ore s pecifically, cohesion-based feedback had a positive relation to a team's total message count, response rate, and individual cohesion score. In addition, the analysis of linguistic categories showed that the most salient categories observed were related to words about time and work. Furthermore, a comparison between feedback variables and type (i.e., positive and negative feedback) indicates that those individuals exposed to negative feedback had an increase in their communication pacing rates when exposed to positive feedback. Although the feedback system did not appear to affect individual performance, the findings s u g gest t h a t t h e c o h esion m e a sure d e fi ned in th is st ud y is positively correlated to the task cohesion construct and is also related to individual and team performance.

Software Maintainability is the ability of the system to undergo changes with a degree of ease and Quality assurance refers to planned and systematic production that provides confidence in a product. This paper describes the different issues of software maintainability and quality assurance in the agile environment. This paper also presents the different metrics that improve the overall quality of the software maintainability in the agile environment. This paper proposes the model of software maintainability and quality assurance in the agile environment. The approach that is used is based on the customer requirements by iterative interaction with customers to provide the best requirement with assured quality.
