It began by performing in relativelysmall pioneeringorganizations;then it gainedthe interestof medium- size companies, academia, and applied research institutions and laboratories; nowadays it runs in organizations of any kind, including major software and systems development companies. Because of such a wide diffusion of agile development in industry, the need for collaboration between academics and practitioners increases, with the aim of improving the body of knowledge available to help managers, system engi- neers,andsoftwareengineerstotaketheirmanagerial/economical,andarchitec- tural/project/technical decisions. During its 15 editions, the XP conference has been a major supporter of the agile vision of software development. Year after year, the XP conference has been supporting the improvements and observing the growth of agile software development and providing evidence of the advantages that agile development canprovide. In fact, these XP editions broughttogether industrial practitioners and researchers in the fields of information systems and software development. Theyexaminedthelatesttheory,practicalapplications,andimplicationsofagile and lean methods. XP 2014, in continuity with the past editions, provided a multidisciplinary platformforresearchandpracticeonvariousaspectsofagilemethods,increased theinteractionandcollaborationbetweenpractitionersandresearchers,anddis- cussedandrethoughttherelationships,synergies,compatibilities,andincompat- ibilities between agile and lean practices. This book presents the regular papers, short papers, and the experience re- ports that the Research Program Committee accepted for presentation at XP 2014.Weshouldpointoutthattheacceptanceprocesswasveryselective;specif- ically, more than 50% of the submitted papers and experience reports were re- jected. This book presents chapters concerning or rethinking agile and lean devel- opment research topics, including: contracting, maturity modeling, value-based softwaredevelopment, large-scalesoftwaredevelopment, methods, metrics, test- ing, challenges and perspectives, software development in practice and teaching atuniversity.Theexperiencereportscomefrombothindustryandresearchinsti- tutes,andtheirtopicsrangefromstudyingglobalarchitecturedesignapproaches to investigatingchallengesinvolvedwhenadvancingsoftwaredevelopmentprac- tices.
