Conference theme:

Toward reinforcing agile approaches using the international series of guidelines and standards ISO/IEC 29110

Abstract:

It is currently widespread for very small entities to adopt agile environments to develop their software products. However, are these environments appropriately implemented? Do they fulfill their objective of providing us with the tools to guarantee the quality of our products? They allow me to demonstrate that I am competitive at an international level? This talk addresses a proposal to strengthen agile software development environments by implementing practices from the entry profile of the ISO/IEC 29110 standard, which allows for a more robust development environment while still using its agile approach for the development of its non-critical products.
