Thus, the principles of Knowledge Management (KM) are presented as determinant and effective factors for the software product quality. There are several approaches to applying KM in an organization. However, for a KM approaches to succeed, it is important to conduct a KM diagnostic in order to analyze the KM current state that already exists in the organization. Objective: The objective of this paper is to present the results of a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) conducted to summarize existing research on KM diagnostic in software development organizations. Method: SLR was performed by searching four electronic databases. We also performed backward snowballing from reference lists of selected studies. Results: From the SLR, we identified 24 studies addressing investigated differents approaches related to KM diagnostics in software development organizations. Conclusion: Based on our results we conclude that in the software engineering context the KM diagnosis practice still does not seem consolidated.","PeriodicalId":443823,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the XVII Brazilian Symposium on Software Quality","volume":"136 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134598429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, motivation is an important aspect because it affects the productivity of IT professionals and on the quality of the software developed. A factor that can negatively influence motivation is the lack of recognition for the work done. In the long term, lack of recognition can lead to demotivation and low performance in activities. In order to understand the perception and expectations of IT professionals regarding the recognition of work, a Design Thinking process was carried out. This process focuses on understanding problems based on human expectations and needs in an especific context and generating solutions based on this understanding. This paper reports the experience of using Design Thinking to support the design of a tool for recognition of work in software companies. During the project, we carried out a research with 30 IT professionals from two software companies; we proposed the idea of the tool and conducted tests with possible users. Based on the results of the process, we developed the LIKE tool, aiming to increase the visibility of the contributions of the professionals, facilitate their recognition among colleagues; make explicit knowledge by recording feedback and providing rewards. 1","PeriodicalId":443823,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the XVII Brazilian Symposium on Software Quality","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125555825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Several studies have addressed the impact of sustainability in the SE practice, from a range of perspectives. This study presents a systematic mapping study that aggregates, summarizes and discusses the state-of-the-art approaches for sustainable SE practice. We analyzed 75 relevant primary studies addressing methods, processes, tools and metrics proposed to support the software development in a sustainable way. The included primary studies were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria applied to studies published prior to 2017. They were analyzed based on a set of classification criteria, including contribution types, SDLC phases, evidence types, research types, application domains, publication venues, distribution between academia and industry and research methods. The results indicated a growing interest by the SE research community in the Green and Sustainable software domain. Besides, there is an observed need for more studies on techniques, tools and metrics covering construction, testing and maintenance. The results also point out a clear view of the SE community about the need for a better alignment between research and practice in this domain.","PeriodicalId":443823,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the XVII Brazilian Symposium on Software Quality","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132547900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The identification of technical debt (TD) is an important step to effectively manage TD items and make TD manageable and explicit to keep the amount of TD under control. Researchers have developed automated approaches to identify TD items using indicators derived from source code metrics. However, those indicators do not always point to TD that developer teams consider real problems and cannot identify many types of relevant TD. Objective: This work seeks to identify comment patterns and their relationships which can support the identification process of documentation and requirement debts. Method: We performed a qualitative and quantitative analysis to investigate acceptable patterns of comments which indicate the existence of documentation and requirement debts. Results: We classify factors which can impact on the detection automated of documentation and requirement debts. Besides, the performed study provided a set of new patterns to detect documentation and requirement debts. Conclusion: This research contributes to bridge the gap between the TD identification area and code comment analysis, successfully using code comments to detect documentation and requirement debts.","PeriodicalId":443823,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the XVII Brazilian Symposium on Software Quality","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124406153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the combination of different testing approaches in order to compose a strategy is expected to improve the quality of the designed test suites. Objective: To devise and experiment with a testing strategy for ASs that relies on particular characteristics of these systems. Method: We ranked testing approaches for ASs and devised a strategy that is composed of the three top-ranked ones. The rankings address the challenges that can be mitigated by the approaches, activities from a typical testing process, and characteristics observed in some AS implementations. The strategy was applied to two adaptive systems for mobile devices. Results: The approach was applied to both systems. We observed partial gains in terms of fault detection and structural coverage when results are analysed separately for each system, even though no improvements were obtained with the application of the third approach. Conclusion: The strategy, despite being incipient, is promising and motivates a deeper analysis of results and new experiment rounds. Furthermore, it can evolve as long as the rankings are updated with new approaches.","PeriodicalId":443823,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the XVII Brazilian Symposium on Software Quality","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125237541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to time and resource constraints, there is a difficulty in simulating real scenarios of agile projects in the classroom and providing experiences in decision making and problem solving for the students. Educational games aim to reduce this challenge by simulating real software development experiences. Nevertheless, many educational games for teaching agile methodologies have no empirical evidence about the learning and experience promoted for students, or do not adopt an appropriate evaluation model. This paper reports an experience in a Software Processes class with 48 students playing the Scrum Card Game, a non-digital game that simulates activities of an agile project. We adopted the MEEGA+ model to evaluate the game regarding the students learning and experience with the game and Grounded Theory procedures to investigate the positives aspects and improve needs in relation to the game. From The results obtained, we observed that the game was positively evaluated by the students, being considered as a learning approach that allows practical experience with Scrum and development of secondary skills, such as collaboration, decision-making and problem solving.","PeriodicalId":443823,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the XVII Brazilian Symposium on Software Quality","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130295716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The adoption of SPL provides several benefits, such as, the decreasing in time for building a system and reducing its cost. One of the main SPL development activities is variability management. To manage variabilities, there are several approaches widely known in literature, such as, PLUS and SMarty. Literature has no reports of experimental evaluations comparing existing approaches. With the creation of the SMarty approach, a continuous experimental evaluation process was started in relation to other approaches with the same purpose. Thus, experimental studies have been developed in recent years to demonstrate the effectiveness of SMarty in relation to other similar approaches. Thus, in this paper, we continue the process of continuous experimentation and evolution of SMarty comparing it with the PLUS method with regard to the ability to configure SPL specifics products from use case diagrams. The results did not point to the advantages of the SMarty approach over PLUS, but point out discussion points and improvements for SMarty and the experimentation process followed.","PeriodicalId":443823,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the XVII Brazilian Symposium on Software Quality","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129785709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
