Abstract

We present the development of XPSwiki, a tool supporting the XP practices for requirement gathering and project management – user stories and the Planning Game. XPSwiki has been developed in Smalltalk using Squeak Swiki technology, and is accessed through the Internet in a user friendly, agile way. It keeps track of multiple projects, each with its releases, iterations, user stories, acceptance tests, and tasks. XPSwiki allows project tracking, and automates documentation generation and metrics collection. It is presently in use in real software development environments.
