In this paper, we propose an agile approach, for the migration of legacy software which combines a user story-based iterative process with automated acceptance testing. The proposed approach, named Storytest-Driven Migration (STDM), requires that acceptance tests are written both on the legacy and target versions of a software system. Because of their relevance, the quality of automated acceptance tests is assured through software inspections. As a proof of concept, we conducted a first migration project of a web application towards both a web application framework and a mobile platform.

Abstract
In this paper, we propose an agile approach, for the migration of legacy software which combines a user story-based iterative process with automated acceptance testing. The proposed approach, named Storytest-Driven Migration (STDM), requires that acceptance tests are written both on the legacy and target versions of a software system. Because of their relevance, the quality of automated acceptance tests is assured through software inspections. As a proof of concept, we conducted a first migration project of a web application towards both a web application framework and a mobile platform.File in questo prodotto:
