Abstract

Given the evolution and increasing usage of agile methods and practices, the successful adoption of agile is crucial. During the last decade, the critical success factors (CSFs) of agile development research developed rapidly. This paper aims to review the research on CSFs of agile software development in the last ten years (2006-2016) which used empirical methodologies to identify the success factors. In this paper, eight factors are selected as critical success factors for agile software development. A taxonomy which maps these eight CSFs into Technical, Organizational, People, Process categories is introduced in this research.
