Abstract

Evidence shows that software development methods, frameworks, and even practices are seldom applied in companies by following the book. Combinations of different methodologies into home-grown processes are being constantly uncovered. Nonetheless, an academic understanding and investigation of this phenomenon is very limited. In 2016, the HELENA initiative was launched to research hybrid development approaches in software system development. This paper introduces the 3rd HELENA workshop and provides a detailed description of the instrument used and the available data sets.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Only the core team has access to the survey instrument given that page #16 contained confidential information that the instrument tool collected separately.

  2. 2.

    Five data points were additionally dropped due to the instrument marking such entries as inconsistent.
