An analysis of data from 16 software development organizations reveals seven agile RE practices, along with their benefits and challenges, and seven traditional requirements-engineering approaches that should be considered.
Abstract
An analysis of data from 16 software development organizations reveals seven agile RE practices, along with their benefits and challenges. The rapidly changing business environment in which most organizations operate is challenging traditional requirements-engineering (RE) approaches. Software development organizations often must deal with requirements that tend to evolve quickly and become obsolete even before project completion. Rapid changes in competitive threats, stakeholder preferences, development technology, and time-to-market pressures make prespecified requirements inappropriate.

A systematic literature review on agile requirements engineering practices and challenges

TL;DR: The findings suggest that agile requirements engineering as a research context needs additional attention and more empirical results are required to better understand the impact of agile requirements Engineering practices e.g. dealing with non-functional requirements and self-organising teams.

Embracing change with extreme programming

Kent Beck
- 01 Oct 1999 - 
TL;DR: Rather than planning, analyzing, and designing for the far-flung future, XP exploits the reduction in the cost of changing software to do all of these activities a little at a time, throughout software development.

Requirements engineering and agile software development

TL;DR: This paper analyzes commonalities and differences of both approaches and determines possible ways how agile software development can benefit from requirements engineering methods.
