What is AGILE TESTING? Test-ing (tĕst′ĭng) An early, iterative, and automated
V&V of customer requirements; Incremental testing A testing approach embracing principles & values of lean
thinking, product development flow, & agile methods Early, collaborative, and automated form of incremental
development, integration, system, & operational testing Testing method that supports collaboration, teamwork,
iterative development, & responding to change Mult-tiered automated framework for TDD, Continuous
Integration, BDD, Continuous Delivery, & DevOps Maximizes BUSINESS VALUE of organizations, portfolios,
programs & projects with lean-agile principles/practices

• Small autonomous services that work together• Self-contained process that provides a unique capability
• Loosely coupled service oriented architecture with bounded contexts• Small independent processes communicating with each other using language-agnostic APIs
• Fined-grained independent services running in their own processes that are developed and deployed independently• Suite of services running in their own process, exposing APIs, and doing one thing well (independently developed and deployable)
• Single app as a suite of small services, each running in its own process and communicating with lightweight mechanisms (HTTP APIs)

What’s the Bottom Line?“Agile Testing Done Early & Often”
Agile TestingTraditional TestingDramatically reduces risks
· Automates manual processes· Instant verification & validation· High project visibility· Greater confidence and morale· Incremental business value· 24x7 deployability to users· Highly quality and reliability
Late defect discovery· Low quality software· Poor project visibility· Lack of deployability· Late big-bang integration· Testing is a bottleneck· Poor customer satisfaction· Outright project failure

Agile Testing—Anti-Patterns
Agile testing slows down with very large systems Slow testing slows integration and increases bugs Agile testing can speed back up with more attention

Agile Testing—Scaling Practices
Industry very slow in adopting agile testing model Cost, difficulty, and territorialism are common issues Developers must take initiative for disciplined testing
43
Technical BarriersOrganizational BarriersDevelopers don’t want to test
· Infrequently committing code· Committing broken code· Failing to immediately fix builds· Not writing automated tests· Not ensuring 100% of tests pass· Not running private builds· Resorting to traditional testing
Resistance to change· Fear of investment costs· Fear of learning new skills· Test group territorialism· Organizational policy conflicts· Overhead of maintaining CI· Complexity and scaling· Not developing a quality culture

Agile test use is low in spite of its age, i.e., 15 years Many do not understand its utter simplicity and power Failure to use agile testing undermines project success

Key Agile SCALING POINTERS One must think and act small to accomplish big things Slow down to speed up, speed up ‘til wheels come off Scaling up lowers productivity, quality, & business value

EMPOWER WORKFORCE - Allow workers to help establish enterprise business goals and objectives.
ALIGN BUSINESS VALUE - Align and focus agile teams on delivering business value to the enterprise.
PERFORM VISIONING - Frequently communicate portfolio, project, and team vision on continuous basis.
REDUCE SIZE - Reduce sizes of agile portfolios, acquisitions, products, programs, projects, and teams.
ACT SMALL - Get large agile teams to act, behave, collaborate, communicate, and perform like small ones.
BE SMALL - Get small projects to act, behave, and collaborate like small ones instead of trying to act larger.
ACT COLLOCATED - Get virtual distributed teams to act, behave, communicate and perform like collocated ones.
USE SMALL ACQUISITION BATCHES - Organize suppliers to rapidly deliver new capabilities and quickly reprioritize.
USE LEAN-AGILE CONTRACTS - Use collaborative contracts to share responsibility instead of adversarial legal ones.
USE ENTERPRISE AUTOMATION - Automate everything with Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, & DevOps.
