Practical Agile Testing with Janet Gregory September 28, 2009

This 3-day Agile Testing course, authored by Lisa Crispin and Janet Gregory, explains how testers can become valued agile team members, how they contribute to delivering a continuous stream of business value and ways to overcome common cultural and logistical obstacles in transitioning to an agile development process.

This Agile Testing Workshop describes the values and principles that help testers adopt an agile testing mindset, and gives practical alternatives to traditional testing processes, such as defect tracking, metrics, audits, and conforming to quality models. Students will be shown how to complete testing activities in short iterations, and how testers contribute on a daily basis during each iteration and release cycle.

Through interactive exercises and group discussions, participants will discover good strategies for driving development with both executable and manual tests. The course is filled with real-life examples of the many ways agile testers add value.

LEARN HOW TO:
Understand how testers contribute on agile teams, how agile teams successfully cover all dimensions of software quality in short release cycles, and collaborate to deliver the "right" business value at frequent, consistent intervals.

NEXT SESSION
The next course will be delivered at Skills Matter - London, on 28 Sep 2009 by Janet Gregory, co-author of this course.
