Research Methodology
Mapping planing
This mapping is highlighting the significant problems that arise due to
a lack of process for individual developers to measure their growth in
the agile XP team. This mapping will assist us in evaluating the
advantages [57] that can be accomplished if the personal software
process introduced in the agile XP team to measure an individual’s
performance and growth. This study will also help us to find out
problems and issues that arise when aligning PSP with the agile XP
process.
Research Questions
- What problems occurred during the integration of the Personal Software
Process with an agile extreme programming team? This question has
discussed in table 6 and table 8.
- What challenges have encountered in the literature about XP? This
question has discussed in table 10.
- What are the primary motivations for using XP?
Motivations of XP have discussed in table 9.
- What are the challenges reported in the literature of PSP? We
discussed these challenges in table 12.
- What are the primary motivations for using PSP?
Motivations of PSP have discussed in table 11.
Search Strategy
for searching primary studies, different digital Computing databases are
used. In all electronic databases, the Researcher uses search strings,
keywords.
Keywords
Search string for searching the studies. {Personal software process*},
{PSP*}, {agile}, {individual improvement in agile}, {agile and
PSP}, {collaborative software process vs personal software process},
{personal software process problems*}, {XP practicing}, {PSP and
XP}
Search String(s)
Initial Search String:
(((Agile AND (XP OR Extreme programming)) AND (personal quality measures
OR individual quality measures OR person quality measures)) AND (PSP OR
personal software process))
Final Search String:
(((Agile OR XP OR Extreme programming) AND personal software process) OR
individual OR Solo OR single) AND (PSP)
Primary study
After the substance getting ready is completed, the study is
set up for the arrangement. Identical the arrangement record using the
Save As heading, and use the naming show that is required by your
gathering for the title name of papers. we select all material and
import prepared element report. Use the look down window on the left
50% of the MS Word structuring
toolbar.
Search Engine
This paper used the advanced search feature of digital libraries for
Search strings. Databases that are selected for retrieving relevant
articles are shown in below figure 3 and years wise are shown in figure
4.

Criteria of Inclusion
Following inclusion criteria were followed while making a decision.
- Research papers relevant to agile and personal software process (PSP)
were included as primary studies
- Relevant research papers to agile XP issues were included
- Research papers relevant to personal and collaborative software
process benefits were included
- Experts opinion’s research papers were included
- Research papers that are relevant to individual development in agile
XP are included.
Criteria of Exclusion
Excluded research papers.
- Books excluded
- Research Papers unrelated studies
- Non-English written paper is excluded
- Blogs, reports are excluded
Way of Conducting the mapping
With search string(s) in hand and conferences that were selected for
search, 114 papers were selected in total that meet the inclusion
criteria for primary study [Table 1]. With the further evaluation of
these papers, the Researcher has comprised different types of studies
that are most relevant to the issues in hand and filtered papers to 18,
as mentioned in Table 1. The first study mentioned in Table 2 and the
relevant study mentioned in Table 3. The reference description of
primary studies is in Table 4, and the reference description of relevant
studies is in Table 5. Aligned parameters extraction detail is in Table
7.
