Ensuring software quality in agility

Description of the course

When you test, can't you keep up with the pace of delivery of agile developers and are you always behind? Does a back-and-forth of fixes eat up the time of several team members?

It is possible to catch up with the speed of developers by updating testing skills. This 6-hour course teaches how to properly manage functional testing and how to apply the methods in an agile project.

At the end of this day, you will be equipped to become an effective team player and a major contributor to the success of your agile deliveries!

Details of the course

The programme is based on the main concepts of Agile and on the participants' shared experience. In order to consolidate the learning, exercises with a high added value for the understanding and use of agile testing concepts are integrated in the programme.

 Prerequisites

Be involved, in any way, in the quality assurance and testing of software or information systems. An adequate knowledge of the fundamentals of agile development and the agile manifesto is important, as the course does not cover them...

 Expected benefits?

Implementing an effective testing process will increase the efficiency of your team and the project can be delivered on time!

Why take this course?

If you find it difficult to keep up with the speed of the agile team's deliveries, or if you find it hard to choose between the different methods and techniques to use, this training will help you to acquire the skills you need to feel comfortable with your testing.

You will learn new software testing skills and consolidate existing ones through exposure to modern and proven methods.

Examples of training benefits in figures

Achieve a 50% gain in velocity across the team by eliminating test lags with the sprint (no testing in sprint+1).

Reduce the cost of defects by 50 to 200 times by preventing and detecting anomalies earlier in the process.
