Abstract :
Collaboration is an important concept for workgroups involved in agile development processes. However, enhancing collaboration within those groups is not an easy task. This research aims to create a Collaboration Observation Framework (COF) suitable for workgroups that practice agile software development fundamentals. To this end, observations were conducted in agile development workgroups to validate and identify criteria for the collaboration evaluation. In this paper, COF is presented, and its applicability is discussed in the representatives´ workgroup view.
