Overview

Test managers are facing new challenges on how to adapt their testing process, as more development shops move to some form of Agile developmental process. 

What are the pitfalls on moving to Agile Testing?  How best can you maintain quality and rigour in such a fluid environment?

By discussing the different Agile approaches, this course will help the test manager ensure that the most appropriate practices are employed to plan, manage and implement testing.

The capturing of requirements, appropriate use of test automation, test effort and schedule estimation and documentation is still important in Agile testing projects, but the rules have changed.  Throught the course, real-life case studies and relevant exercises will help attendees understand how to successfully implement Agile testing processes whilst avoiding the pitfalls.
