Como comunidades de práticas apoiam o desenvolvimento ágil em larga escala?

Abstract

Agile software development has become an attractive option for companies trying to improve their performance, although their methods were originally designed for small and individual teams. The current literature does not provide a cohesive image of how agile methods are staggered into the nature of large and often distributed software development. Some studies claim that Practice Communities (CoPs) may be an important part of a successful adoption of agile practices, especially in large organizations. CoPs are groups of experts who share a common interest or topic and want to collectively deepen their knowledge. This study aims to highlight how CoPs are applied and used to promote and scale agile methods in large projects. To answer the research question, have been used to support the large-scale agile development teams as practical communities? On a large scale and “Practice Communities”. Thus, a synthesis of solutions found in twenty -one has provided 13 distinct categories that organizations can implement, including “team coordination”, “Knowledge Sharing”, “Open Community”.
