DRIVING AGILE SUCCESS: HOW SOFTWARE PROCESS METRICS TRANSFORM PROJECT OUTCOMES (2025)

Abstract

 Agile development places a strong emphasis on teamwork and working in small, flexible increments. Teams may react swiftly to changes using this method while upholding high standards of quality. The use of software process metrics, which provide invaluable insights into team performance and effectiveness, is essential to the success of Agile methodologies. These ideas are essential for increasing output, facilitating well-informed decision-making, and encouraging ongoing improvement. The importance of software process metrics in Agile project management is examined in this study, along with how they affect workflow efficiency and product quality. We demonstrate how Agile teams leverage key metrics like velocity, cycle time, defect density, and test coverage to improve their workflows, uphold quality standards, and coordinate development activities with business objectives. In essence, Agile teams use metrics as a framework to monitor progress, spot possible roadblocks, and make sure they are in line with potential clients. The purpose of this study is to demonstration how these principles can be used to improve team performance and help in the creation of high-quality software.
