Abstract Most organizations have begun to adopt agile methods to pursue successful software development. However, the adoption and implementation of agile approaches are facing various challenges. The success of agile software development depends on Critical Success Factors (CSFs), which this study aims to identify and classify based on their relative importance. Through an extensive literature review, these factors are summarized, screened, and categorized into six dimensions. Their evolution is also outlined and analyzed. Then, the factors are illustrated through a bubble chart. Furthermore, this study determines the relevant CFSs that have a significant impact on how effectively can agile software development be implemented in China. The findings suggest certain recommendations to ensure that agile software projects are efficiently implemented in China, maximizing the chances of project success, providing valuable insights and practical guidance.
