| Abstract |
| Agile practices are applied successfully in several of today’s software development projects. Their use can lead to improved flexibility and better customer orientation. Another hot topic is offshoring. Development projects are carried out in low-wage countries, mainly to realize cost advantages and to benefit from bigger job markets. In this paper we evaluate several case studies and experience reports dealing with offshoring done in an agile way. This provides a summary of common challenges and solutions in agile offshoring. We especially analyze which agile practices work well in typical offshore settings. Based on these results we conclude for which type of projects agile offshoring is applicable and where problems still exist. |
