CMMI stands for Capability Maturity Model Integration and provides a reference model to improve and evaluate processes according to their maturity based on best practices.<\/jats:p><jats:p>On the other hand, particularly in a lightweight software development process, the costs of a CMMI appraisal are hard to justify since its advantages are not directly related to the creation of value for the customer.<\/jats:p><jats:p>This paper presents Jidoka4CMMI, a tool that \u2014 once a CMMI appraisal has been conducted \u2014 allows the documentation of the assessment criteria in form of executable test cases. The test cases, and so the CMMI appraisal, can be repeated anytime, without additional costs.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The use of Jidoka4CMMI increases the benefits of conducting a CMMI appraisal. We hope that this encourages practitioners using lightweight software development processes to assess their processes using a CMMI model.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218194014400117","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,3,9]],"date-time":"2015-03-09T09:02:41Z","timestamp":1425891761000},"page":"1255-1272","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Continuous CMMI Assessment Using Non-Invasive Measurement and Process Mining"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Saulius","family":"Astromskis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Applied Software Engineering, Free University of Bozen\/Bolzano, Piazza Domenicani 3, Bolzano 39100, Italy"}]},{"given":"Andrea","family":"Janes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Applied Software Engineering, Free University of Bozen\/Bolzano, Piazza Domenicani 3, Bolzano 39100, Italy"}]},{"given":"Alberto","family":"Sillitti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Applied Software Engineering, Free University of Bozen\/Bolzano, Piazza Domenicani 3, Bolzano 39100, Italy"}]},{"given":"Giancarlo","family":"Succi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Applied Software Engineering, Free University of Bozen\/Bolzano, Piazza Domenicani 3, Bolzano 39100, Italy"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,3,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"rf1","volume-title":"Extreme Programming Explained: Embrace Change","author":"Beck K.","year":"2004"},{"key":"rf2","volume-title":"Agile Project Management with Scrum","author":"Schwaber K.","year":"2004"},{"key":"rf3","volume-title":"Lean Software Development: An Agile Toolkit","author":"Poppendieck M.","year":"2003"},{"key":"rf5","unstructured":"M.\u00a0Ceschi, IEEE Software (2005)\u00a0pp. 21\u201327."},{"key":"rf6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-540-85279-7_20"},{"key":"rf10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-642-02987-5_6"},{"key":"rf16","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1201\/9780203498385","volume-title":"Real Process Improvement Using the CMMI","author":"West M.","year":"2004"},{"key":"rf17","first-page":"26","volume":"1","author":"Khraiwesh M.","year":"2011","journal-title":"World of Computer Science and Information Technology Journal"},{"key":"rf19","volume-title":"Out of the Crisis","author":"Deming William Edwards","year":"1986"},{"key":"rf25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TKDE.2004.47"},{"key":"rf27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TSE.2012.68"},{"key":"rf29","volume-title":"Toyota Production System: Beyond Large-Scale Production","author":"Ohno T.","year":"1988"},{"key":"rf30","volume-title":"Running Todays Factory: a Proven Strategy for lean manufacturing","author":"Standard C.","year":"1999"},{"key":"rf31","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4615-9714-8"},{"key":"rf35","author":"Astromskis S.","year":"2013","journal-title":"Cutter IT Journal"},{"key":"rf36","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1145\/514183.514185"},{"key":"rf38","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-642-31739-2_11"},{"key":"rf43","volume-title":"ARIS - vom Gesch\u00e4ftsprozess zum Anwendungssystem","author":"Scheer A.","year":"1999"},{"key":"rf45","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.is.2004.02.002"},{"key":"rf46","volume-title":"Unified Modeling Language Reference Manual, 2nd Edition","author":"Rumbaugh J."},{"key":"rf48","volume-title":"Encyclopedia of Software Engineering","author":"Basili V.
