Abstract

Software cost estimation is very crucial for the success of the software. For this reason, many studies have been conducted to identify various cost estimation techniques and barriers affecting the software estimation process in traditional development. However, these days, most software development organizations are working following agile methodologies. Therefore, there is a need to identify the critical success factors and barriers of cost estimation for agile methodology followers. In this study, a systematic literature review and survey is conducted to determine the crucial success factors and barriers of cost estimation. Therefore, this study might help an agile project manager plan the cost and effort of the software project by getting an idea from the list we have provided after validating the techniques used from the state of the art and industry so that we can come up with practical guidelines.
