Early development of Graphical User Interface (GUI) in Agile methodoligies

Abstract

The Agile methodologies have shown success over plan-driven methodologies especially in web development due to their ability to adapt to new requirement changes. Because of the importance of the development of Graphical User Interfaces (GUI), we have proposed a new agile practice, “Early User Interface Development” (EUID), for developing GUI at early stages in our previous paper [1,2]. To speed up the process of producing the output of our practice, we propose a framework for representing the GUI structure and behavior. Besides, the framework can be used for automating the development of GUI according to the EUID process.
