AGILE
SOFTWARE TESTING

Agile Testing is the practice of software testing that follows the principles of agile software development involving all members of a multifunctional team, to ensure the evolution of a project according to the customer’s needs at a sustainable and continuous pace.

BENEFITS OF AGILE TESTING

SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS

User requirements must be correctly described and all staff must be aware of all aspects involved.

TEAM WORK

The Software Tests are in charge of the whole team not only of the Testers and of QAs. For this reason, teamwork is of vital importance.

ONGOING TESTING

Software Tests are performed throughout the development process. This task is not established at a certain stage of the process.

FEEDBACK

Because testing is performed as a task throughout the development process, it reduces the cost of correcting errors by having faster feedback than in traditional methodologies.

RAPID PROGRESS

All these benefits of Agile Testing help the project to advance quickly in each Sprint and it does not stagnate.

In order to take advantage of the potential of agile development environments, GreenSQA has its own methodology for integrating tests into development cycles. In this way the use of tools is optimized, work is synchronized and better quality deliveries are obtained.

TYPES OF TESTS TO BE PERFORMED ON THE AGILE TEST MODEL

  • UNIT TESTS - TECHNICAL TESTS

    These tests are of internal quality. In other words, technical tests to guarantee the functional and non-functional requirements requested. Unit tests verify the functionality of a small object or method and component tests verify the behavior of a group of classes that provide a certain service.

  • FUNCTIONAL TESTING - BUSINESS TESTING

    These tests allow measuring the external quality of the software based on the user histories defined as part of the agile development. These tests are intended to illustrate and confirm the desired behavior of the system.

  • EXPLORATORY, USABILITY AND ACCEPTANCE TESTS

    These tests complement each other incrementally as product development progresses. At the end of the Sprint, the acceptance test is performed with the user considering an integrated test that connects the previous sprints. This type of testing ensures early feedback from the customer or users.

  • PERFORMANCE, LOAD AND SAFETY TESTS

    These technical tests evaluate the non-functional behavior of the software. The objective is to analyze and submit to extreme tests non-functional characteristics such as performance, robustness, and security. This type of tests is executed in an automated way.

GreenSQA has an Agile Testing process that is structured in four major stages: planning, analysis, functional execution, and integral execution. Each of the stages is formed by one or more activities through which deliverable are produced.

Agile Tests guide software development, thus replacing the formal definition of requirements. Therefore, a Quality Software product aligned with the needs required by the client is achieved.

At GreenSQA we enhance the capacity of our clients agile teams, on site or remotely, with professional Agile Testing services.
