Topic: Testing on the Team
We’ll discuss testers and testing on a Scrum team. Topics to be covered will likely include:
- Agile – thinking agile not just agile practices
- Scrum – a framework not a rule set
- QA – preventing defects not just finding them
- Testing – validation and finding defects
- TDD – a mindset change, you can’t think of everything
- Continuous Integration (CI) – regression testing should always be done
- Test Environment – like for like systems or false positives and false negatives
Since each one of the above topics could be an entire meeting (or more), topic depth will depend somewhat upon audience participation and interest.
