Survey Surfaces Raft of Ongoing Agile Development Challenges - DevOps.com
Briefly

Conducted by Digital.ai, the survey identifies end-to-end visibility and traceability from business initiative through deployment as the top opportunity for improvement (44%), followed by an ability to measure cycle time, wait time and bottlenecks (34%), continuous testing (29%) and identification and measurement of technological risk (28%).
Despite these issues, nearly two-thirds (63%) said they have visibility into their Agile pipeline, with 55% claiming they have complete visibility. However, only 36% said DevOps teams currently work together as one team to accelerate innovation and deployment of high-quality and more reliable software. At the same time, only two-thirds (66%) claimed at least 50% of their applications were delivered on time and "with quality."
Joyce Tompsett, general manager of the State of Agile project at Digital.ai, said the survey makes it clear many organizations are still trying to strike the right balance when it comes to developing software. For example, the survey finds the top two reasons organizations adopt Agile (tied at 41%) are to accelerate time to market and prioritize delivery and measure customer/business value. Most software development teams are being evaluated both based on velocity (33%) and the value delivered (29%), the survey finds.
