Abstract
The disclosed embodiments illustrate methods and systems for crowdsourcing a software development project. The method includes segregating the software development project into one or more modules based on at least one configuration file. The at least one configuration file is deterministic of at least a set of dependencies between the one or more modules. Further, a task corresponding to at least one module from the one or more modules is created. The task is crowdsourced to one or more crowdworkers. Thereafter, a source code of the at least one module, received as a response for the task, is integrated with one or more source codes of remaining of the one or more modules to generate an integrated software package based on said at least one configuration file. Further, the integrated software package is validated by performing integration testing of the integrated software package.
