abstract = "Context: Software testing activities are considered as knowledge
intensive and therefore Knowledge Management (K M) principles and
techniques can be applied to efficiently manage the knowledge
generated. In agile development, agile testing practices can
benefit the companies in terms of K M, specially in the knowledge
sharing. However, there is still little empirical knowledge about
the state of practice as well as contemporary problems with
respect to agile testing and K M . Objective: This study aims to
understand how knowledge is shared in Brazilian companies that
incorporated agile methodology. Method: In order to create an
empirical basis on the aspects of agile testing and K M . a survey
was conducted w i t h professionals working with agile tests. The
survey received 150 replies. Results: The results with more
highlight are: Knowledge is, in fact, shared into the team
(89.3%), informal communication is most used (52%), tools are used
to share knowledge, the future decisions are based on past
problems (88%) and the success stories are stored by team (70.9%).
Conclusion: Knowledge is recognized as extremely important in any
area. Its extraction and publication are of fundamental
importance, as can be proven in this research. Agile practices
support companies to make use of KM principles.",
