In this study we compared the ISD processes of two case companies and their
application of extreme programming. We chose one traditional industrial case
and one that could be classified as a new-economy case. Interestingly, in the
more traditional case, the tools and techniques of XP had been employed
for over 10 years and in quite a systematic fashion, though the company had
never made a deliberate decision to use XP. In the newer company, the XP
process had more or less emerged as a novel way of solving time and budget
constraints. The developers were aware of XP practices, but did not choose
to engage in it “by the book.” This company, with a younger developer staff,
had seen agile practices as a natural way of doing things as they did not see
the value of more bureaucratic methods. A cross-comparison of the two cases
can be found in Table 1.
