| dc.description.abstract | ENGLISH : This scoping review provides an expanded view of the Agile methodology in the software industry - an iterative, incremental project management framework that is renowned for its use in software development. Research questions covering the advantages, disadvantages, enablers, and barriers to Agile were formulated to analyse accepted research papers from 2019 to 2023. Notable overlapping findings were found in the 25 studies that were included. The results revealed that human factors such as communication, conflict resolution, and understanding Agile are essential to the successful implementation of Agile software development. | |
| dc.description.abstract | AFRIKAANS : Hierdie literatuur omvangsoorsig bied 'n uitgebreide siening van die Agile-metodologie in die sagteware-industrie - 'n iteratiewe, inkrementele projekbestuurraamwerk wat bekend is vir die gebruik daarvan in sagteware-ontwikkeling. Navorsingsvrae wat die voordele, nadele, instaatstellers en struikelblokke tot Agile dek, is geformuleer om aanvaarde navorsingsvraestelle van 2019 tot 2023 te ontleed. Opmerklike oorvleuelende bevindings is gevind in die 25 studies wat ingesluit is. Die resultate het aan die lig gebring dat menslike faktore soos kommunikasie, konflikoplossing en begrip van Agile noodsaaklik is vir die suksesvolle implementering van Agile-sagteware-ontwikkeling. | |
