How do we perform testing as an Agile team?
At the beginning of every sprint, we ensure that all the work will be finished by the end of the sprint in order to get a completed increment.
To speed up release cycles, we start preparing the testing infrastructure and documentation simultaneously with the development team producing new features.
We keep the test documentation model up-to-date and optimize it to support each sprint, as well as maintain records throughout the iteration.
We run continuous testing to meet the quality gates criteria, including test automation checks and unit/integration testing, and ensure that all the features are implemented as required.
We introduce test automation at the early SDLC stages to reduce efforts on regression testing and focus on the exploratory testing of new functionality and user experience.
We apply Agile testing quadrants when creating a holistic test strategy.
We take part in backlog refinement sessions along with the development and business analytics team to get clear requirements and eliminate the need for any further modifications.
We run sprint reviews and retrospectives to reflect on the sprint outcomes and identify ways for improvement.
