The software is often produced under significant time constraints. Our idea is to understand the effects of various software development practices on the performance of developers working in stressful environments, and identify the best operating conditions for software developed under stressful conditions collecting data through questionnaires, non-invasive software measurement tools that can collect measurable data about software engineers and the software they develop, without intervening their activities, and biophysical sensors and then try to recreated also in different processes or key development practices such conditions.

Analysis of data related to software development helps to increase quality, control and predictability of software development processes and products.However, collecting such data for is a complex task. A non-invasive collection of software metrics is one of the most promising approaches to solve the task. In this paper we present an approach which consists of four parts: collect the data, store all collected data, unify the stored data and analyze the data to provide insights to the user about software product or process. We employ the approach to the development of an architecture for non-invasive software measurement system and explain its advantages and limitations.
