Room

Track 1

Audience

In general, anybody who works in agile or wants to work in agile

Key-Learning

- Gap between agile and testing

- Gap between the most famous agile frameworks and testing

- Potential solutions to these gaps

- How to do testing on agile

The goal of the talk is to criticize, from the point of view of someone who loves agile, the treatment that agile gives to quality and testing and propose changes in order to fill the gap

In more than 8 years working in Agile, I have realized that the treatment of agility and the most famous agile frameworks such as Scrum give to quality and testing is not entirely clear and satisfactory, especially in the eyes of inexperienced people. What does the agile manifesto tell us about quality and testing?

If we go to one of the most famous frameworks like scrum, have you ever wondered how many times the word testing appears in the latest scrum guide? The result is shocking!!!

In the talk we will see typical misunderstandings when we talk about agile and testing and we will propose some changes, some of them perhaps a little crazy, or not?
