| Abstract | ||
| This paper is concerned with providing an enhanced Scrum framework that combines some practices of eXtreme Programming (XP) approach in Scrum framework to produce quality software on time. XP and Scrum are two agile software development methods. While Scrum is focused on project management, XP is focused on Software development; nevertheless, they both can be used to participate in the development of any software project independently or together. This paper presents the main concepts, features, phases, artifacts, and roles of Scrum as well as a brief introduction to XP and its practices. In this paper, the researcher presents how to combine some XP practices into Scrum activities. The researcher exploits the features and best practices of the two methods to propose an enhanced Scrum framework that includes an elaborated set of guidelines for achieving each Scrum activity. Therefore, the enhanced Scrum framework is more applicable than many previous attempts in this domain. The enhanced Scrum framework has been validated by a group of 17 experts and specialists in software projects. | ||
