Test Professionals Network (Auckland) presents:
Dealing with the Testing Challenges of Agile Methodologies
by Rex Black
A number of companies have adopted Agile methodologies, for various reasons ranging from speed of delivery, flexibility in rapidly changing situations, to just plain trendiness. Every software development lifecycle model, sequential or spiral, incremental or Agile, has testing implications.
Some of these implications ease the testing process. Some of these testing implications challenge testing. In this talk, Rex Black discusses those Agile testing challenges so that you can recognize and resolve these challenges in your company if it adopts an Agile approach.
