Agile Software Development has gained popularity with their people
centric view and their common practices for developing software in
today&rsquo / s volatile business world where change on requirements is
unavoidable. However / the efficiency of the project depends on the
communication and the collaboration of the team, which are
supported by the co-location of the team. But in some cases colocation
of the team cannot be realized, thus agile processes should
also support distributed teams. This point was observed by Kircher,
Jain, Corsaro, and Levine [31] and they suggested Distributed
eXtreme Programming (DXP) after they prepared a study using offthe-
shelf software products in order to replace the effect of face-toface
communication on the efficiency of the application of agile
processes with the aid gathered from tool support.
In this study some available tool support for distributed agile
software development is investigated and a tool is developed and
presented in order to support software configuration management
as well as increasing collaboration and communication of the team.
The tool is then evaluated from a user&rsquo / s perspective and it is
compared with some available software configuration management
tools.
