    On Developing an E-Assessment Tool for Agile Practices
    (SEUH 2023, 2023) Jacob, Kerstin; Hallmann, Daniel; Luettgen, Gerald; Völpel, Vanessa
    As agile software development processes are widely applied in industry, students need to develop a good understanding of agile principles and practices as part of their education. During our ten years of experience with teaching the Scrum framework in team project modules, we noticed that students frequently struggle with writing good user stories and concise sprint goals. To support students in mastering basic practices and to free limited teaching resources for more in-depth discussions on advanced topics, e-assessment tools should be developed to provide timely feedback on at least common mistakes. This paper argues that, and sketches how, research on quality criteria for artifacts of agile development can serve as the basis for such a tool. However, multiple challenges remain that we invite lecturers and researchers to discuss.

    Quality Experience
    (Software Engineering und Software Management 2018, 2018) Prechelt, Lutz; Schmeisky, Holger; Zieris, Franz
    This work was presented at the 38th International Conference on Software Engineering (2016). Context: While successful conventional software development regularly employs separate testing staff, there are successful agile teams with as well as without separate testers. Question: How does successful agile development work without separate testers? What are advantages and disadvantages? Method: A case study, based on Grounded Theory evaluation of interviews and direct observation of three agile teams; one having separate testers, two without. All teams perform long-term development of parts of e-business web portals. Results: Teams without testers use a "quality experience" work mode centered around a tight field-use feedback loop, driven by a feeling of responsibility, supported by test automation, resulting in frequent deployments. Conclusion: In the given domain, hand-overs to separate testers appear to hamper the feedback loop more than they contribute to quality, so working without testers is preferred. However, Quality Experience is achievable only with modular architectures and in suitable domains.

    Specmate: Automated Creation of Test Cases from Acceptance Criteria
    (Software Engineering 2021, 2021) Fischbach, Jannik; Vogelsang, Andreas; Spies, Dominik; Wehrle, Andreas; Junker, Maximilian; Freudenstein, Dietmar
    We summarize the paper Specmate: Automated Creation of Test Cases from Acceptance Criteria, which was presented at the 2020 edition of the IEEE International Conference on Software Testing, Verification and Validation (ICST).
