Agile Testing - Master the new game

Software development is not static, it is moving continuously. In its short life span of few decades, it has evolved and changed considerably. If a developer working in 1960s comes back from retirement, he or she would be amazed to see how development methodologies have changed.

In just the past few years, Agile has taken the software development community by storm and for all the right reasons. Although the Agile methodology has fundamentally changed all aspects of the software development life cycle, it has had the most dramatic impact on testing and software  testers.

In an Agile world, testing is involved in the beginning, middle and end of the project. As a tester, you are expected to perform many activities which are not part of the traditional testing job description. On a similar note, many concepts which are inseparable from testers in the waterfall projects are considered waste in an Agile world. Testing in Agile is a very different experience and requires thorough understanding of how it differs from waterfall and what is expected from testers.

This one-day workshop is ideal for you if you are moving (or planning to move, or are curious) from waterfall to Agile methodology. It will help you understand your role in the team and give you information on how you can guide projects and contribute effectively.

This workshop will help you understand various concepts of Agile development and testing including:

    *  Understanding various roles in an Agile project.
    *  Understanding of various meetings, their outcomes and role of tester in those meetings.
    *  Requirements management in Agile using epics and user stories.
    *  Acceptance criteria and acceptance test driven development.
    * Test execution and bug reporting in an Agile world
    * Test automation and exploration in Agile testing.
