Abstract :
Extreme programming has been advocated recently as an appropriate programming method for the high-speed, volatile world of Internet and Web software development. The author reviews XP from the perspective of the capability maturity model for software, gives overviews of both approaches, and critiques XP from a SW-CMM perspective. He concludes that lightweight methodologies such as XP advocate many good engineering practices and that both perspectives have something to offer the other
