Abstract:

 

This paper presents an integrative literature review of agile practices across development phases, their impact on software quality, and tools supporting quality assessment and improvement. Previous studies focus on scientific literature and lack systematic quality measurement approaches. The study addresses two research questions: How agile practices impact quality attributes in each development phase and which tools are used for measuring and analyzing software quality. The study assumes that agile practices have a positive effect on key quality attributes and that dedicated tools support their assessment. An integrative literature review of 2,641 studies, including grey literature, resulted in 22 selected studies. The results identify sixteen agile practices and seven tools, providing practical guidance for improving software development processes and software quality.

 

Keywords – Software engineering, software development methods, agile methods, agile-hybrid development approach.
