In this paper we discuss how the merging of Agile Methodologies and Software Quality Models in same process today is ignoring many important aspects of both approaches. The inconsideration of these points results in a rigid integration of Agile and Quality Models that limits the full potential of their synergies. Ignoring such important items however does not necessarily means that they are not being utilized in the process, it normally indicates their utilization in an ad-hoc way. To explore this topic, we collected qualitative and quantitative data from literature and two Brazilian companies which work with agile and XP.
