Within industry, there are major shifts towards Agile approaches and away from the traditional methods of Waterfall or Structured processes of software development. In this case study we increase an understanding of this shift by comparing different Agile development teams working on COBOL in a large IT organization of a large insurance enterprise. The research study compares two Agile development teams and studies their adherence to the principles in the Agile Manifesto. These Agile development teams were analyzed for the impact of certain widely accepted critical success factors like delivery strategy adopted by the team, project management, extend of client interaction, and team autonomy and diversity. This case study discusses the hypotheses we developed, the research methodology implemented, the analysis of data to support the hypotheses and results obtained from the analysis. The study was conducted using a survey-based methodology consisting of respondents who were members from the organization.The result from this case study allows us to quantify the adherence of Agile development teams to the principles in the Agile Manifesto. The developed hypotheses were supported using these results.
