Agile QA

 The agile testing lifecycle includes the following 5 phases:

  1. Impact assessment
  2. Agile Testing Planning
  3. Release Readiness
  4. Daily Scrums
  5. Test Agility Review

As you understand now, these are the steps that one need to follow to perform testing.

However every organization has its own way of following the process, this picture shows a cycle that should be performed throughout the sprint in a agile process.

Now the question is what's the benefit of adopting this methodology. So the benefits of the agile testing approach are as follows:

  • It saves time and money
  • Agile testing reduces documentation
  • It is flexible and highly adaptable to changes
  • It provides a way for receiving regular feedback from the end user
  • Better determination of issues through daily meetings

Hope this somewhat helps you understand about agile QA process. For any further question or queries you can reach out to me at abhiguptaqa@gmail.com
