Abstract

Many of the twelve carefully defined practices of Extreme Programming are tightly coupled. The various practices have checks and balances on each other and are, in many ways, dependant on each other. Therefore, neglecting essential practices can have sub-optimal or negative consequences to team results. The practices that are actually utilized in team development can often be attributed to the perceptions of the value and difficulty of the practices by the developers on the team. Through two surveys answered by 27 developers, we have assessed the utilization of and the sentiments towards the XP practices. In general, these developers we surveyed valued and utilized most of the practices.
