Where Requirements and Agility Meet: No-Mans-Land or a Land of Opportunity?

How are requirements managed in agile software development? While practitioners are widely adopting industry-pushed innovations to cope with requirements in agile settings, research at this intersection is still too limited. Based on first-hand experience, we review some core aspects of this industry-academia gap (e.g., user stories vs. requirements, management tools like JIRA, requirements-as-code) and we conclude with a call for action for intensifying joint research between academia and the software industry.
