Agile Testing Practice Exam

About Agile Testing
Agile Testing is a testing practice that follows the rules and principles of agile software development. Unlike the Waterfall method, Agile Testing can begin at the start of the project with continuous integration between development and testing. Agile Testing methodology is not sequential (in the sense it's executed only after coding phase) but continuous.

Agile testing enables collaboration and consistent communication between the development and testing teams. As a result, complex issues are prevented or solved quickly. In addition to the strong team, testing team can be a part of production process instead of entering just prior to release.

Why is Agile Testing important?
Agile testing improves product quality and enables development teams to release software on shorter cycles. And effective test case management helps Agile testers. You'll find and fix errors faster.
