Abstract

Motivators and demotivators are key factors in software productivity. Both are also critical to the success of Agile software development. Literature reports very diverse and multidimensional critical factors affecting the quality of Agile software development, thus, there is a need to extract and map required factors systematically for wider implications. The classification of anticipated factors and sub-factors is also desired to simplify their identification and definition. The reported research focuses on the systematic mapping of motivators and demotivators in Agile software development. A systematic mapping literature study has been performed to shed light on scattered critical factors for software engineers, affecting productivity and understanding of Agile viewpoints. Additionally, this study categorizes the extracted motivators as organization, people and technical. Whereas, the sub-factors’ categorization has been concentrated, which contributes to the motivators at grass root level. This research alleviates the problems of identification, definition and classification of the critical factors in agile software development for both practitioners and researchers.

Highlights

  • IntroductionLess literature review have been focused in conducting studies on motivators and demotivators of software development [2]

  • Motivators play a vital role in software development and there is a need of motivators factor for the practitioners of ASDAgile Software Development (ASD) to improve their technical productivity The motivators of agile teams has increase the software quality, that will help in achieving business goals [1]

  • As motivators and demotivators are itself challenges, the objective of this study is to explore how pervious study has support of motivators and demotivators in ASD

Summary

Introduction

Less literature review have been focused in conducting studies on motivators and demotivators of software development [2]. This research will set a common platform that breaks the shuttle research barrier in motivators and demotivators factors of ASD. This section focuses on a detailed literature review varies in terms of motivators and demotivators in agile software development. He has done a case study by which he describes the motivational factors with the technical aspect. Akhtar et al [4] has done a case study related to scrum adoption and their barrier in Pakistan. Based on their finding they give suggestion which they elaborate mandatory for the improvement in the software industry. The portion which is related to our work are a categorization phase of agile factors
