Intégrer une approche de conception centrée utilisateur à une approche agile de développement logiciel

Abstract

This article is about integrating a user centered design (UCD) approach into an agile software development approach. It starts with key elements of each approach and proposes a practical way to link them together so that integration is easy to implement by software development teams. The article proposes a work guide which includes 18 distinct activities. Validation of the guide is done in two stages: firstly, 5 UCD specialists and 6 agile software development specialists read the guide and propose improvements. The article presents the results of this validation. Secondly, for a 6 month period we follow up with agile teams who received the guide. Adjustments to the guide will be made at the end of each stage of validation, if required. In conclusion, we propose tracks to be explored to facilitate the application of the guide by specialists of the two disciplines.
