Abstract
Although Scrum presents several advantages, process and final product quality continue to be Scrum’s main challenges. The quality assessment should be an essential activity in the software development process. Several authors have attempted to improve the quality of Scrum projects, changing some aspects of the framework, such as including new quality practices, a quality role, and quality processes. However, the quantification of quality is still a challenge. For that reason, the authors proposed a framework called Scrumlity, which was defined in a previous study. This framework proposes a change to Scrum, including a quality role and some artifacts to evaluate quality through a complete execution of a Sprint. In this study, the authors add a User Story Quality assessment to the framework. The User Story Quality Assessment includes over 250 analyzed User Stories. Results obtained after this experiment indicate the importance of executing a User Story Quality Assessment and that Scrum Team members are willing to accept adding this to the framework.
