Abstract

The Common Policy Editor (CPE) project experienced change typical of many software development projects: the programmers, coach, managers, customers and requirements changed; the project was stopped and restarted; and the team was redirected to work on additional projects simultaneously. Extreme Programming (XP) helps teams handle change. This experience report discusses the changes this team encountered, explains how XP helped and cites several lessons learned.
