Abstract

Context: Sentiment Analysis applies computational techniques for both automated and semi-automated identification of human behavior. There is a trend to use such techniques in Sentiment Analysis tasks in the Software Engineering context. Objective: Characterize the influence of developers sentiments on software practices and artifacts in open source software projects. Methods: We conducted a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to identify references in the literature related to the influence of developers sentiments on software practices and artifacts. Results: Evidence showed an increasing number of studies in this theme shedding light on issues related to the influence of developers sentiments on software practices. Practices focusing on developers productivity and collaboration, as well as source code, are the most vulnerable to sentiments variation. Conclusions: Based on the results provided in this SLR, we intend to present an updated and comprehensive overview regarding how the sentiments of developers can positively or negatively impact software practices and artifacts.
