In Italy the public adoption of agile practices in software planning, design and development is still in an infancy state. Local XPUGs are few – notably, the most active ones are in the cities of Milan and Rome. After an informal meeting of the participants of the first edition of ESSAP, the Varese XP-UG was born in 2006, October. This XP-UG is the first experience in Italy spread from an academic environment with specific learning purposes, applying agile methods in an advanced education setting in computer sciences. In particular, preliminary observations of a University ad hoc open source web application called Examinando are given.
