Abstract
Adherence to an agile software development methodology has become commonplace in many organizations. However, while the focus on iteration and frequent investigation appears to readily map onto many of the values advocated by HF/UX professionals, in practice the merging of the two approaches is not always straightforward or complementary. Panel members represent a range of perspectives with regard to the adoption and integration of UX research and agile methodologies, as well as company sizes, from large technology companies to an independent consultancy. Panelists will describe their unique approaches, their transitions into the agile environment and some of the challenges, and their lessons learned when it comes to operating as HF/UX professionals within an agile development environment. Panelist will also discuss common themes, such as the criticality of working ahead of the current sprint, leaner research design, and increased collaboration across developers and research teams.
