ABSTRACT: Despite the importance of computing software, the
process of developing software still faces various challenges. One of these is the
proper methodology for developing software. This paper aims to analyze the
multiple dimensions of software development and how Agile practices can affect
them. To gather information about the various dimensions of software
development, we surveyed software professionals from different backgrounds. The
findings of this study will be used to analyze the effects of ASD on the
software industry of Tanzania. The collected information is analyzed in two ways. The first
involves summarizing the findings of the surveys. The results of the surveys
are presented in a graphical manner. They show the opinions of the survey
respondents on the effectiveness of Agile practices. We then used quantitative
methods to analyze the data. The results of the surveys support the hypothesis
that there is a strong relationship between the effectiveness of Agile
practices and the various dimensions of software design. The importance of the
job fit of a software development team and the use of agile practices is
acknowledged by the findings of the survey. In terms of time, quality, cost,
and stakeholder satisfaction, the fit of the team and ASD is very important for
successful software development. The findings of this study can be generalized
to other companies in the software industry of Tanzania.
