There are thousands of teams that are using the Scrum. But few of them are really “living” Scrum and achieve the success of their projects. This paper discusses the factors that lead the Scrum team to be successful. This paper introduces some important previous works related to the success factors in agile projects; especially that related to the Scrum teams. Then, the researchers extract a list of most effective success factors of the Scrum team. The researchers put the gathered success factors in a form of a questionnaire and passed it to 70 respondents to extract the importance degree of every success factor. Only 57 respondents provide the researchers with complete answers. Depending on the results, the success factors of the Scrum team are categorized according to the importance degree. This paper highlighted the most important success factors that must be considered by Scrum teams when developing a software project.

Requirements elicitation is an important phase of the requirement engineering process. A complete and accurate collection of user requirement can reach to the success of the project. This paper studied and discussed the success factors of requirements elicitation task. First, some important previous works related to the requirement elicitation process are presented. Then, the researchers extract a list of most effective success factors of the requirement elicitation. A new list of the collected success factors is proposed that includes two dimensions; success factors should be considered before beginning the requirement elicitation process, and success factors should be considered during the process.
