Agile Testing Mastery STQA 5.1

What are the principles of Agile Testing?

• Avoid collaboration with customers

• Deliver software infrequently

• Stick to a rigid plan

• Embrace change, deliver working software frequently, collaborate with customers, focus on individuals and interactions, respond to change over following a plan, maintain a sustainable pace

What are the key phases in the Agile Testing Life Cycle?

• Requirement Analysis, Test Planning, Test Design, Test Execution, Defect Reporting, Test Closure

• Defect Resolution

• Test Sign-Off

• Test Execution Planning

• Requirement Validation

What is Test-Driven Development (TDD) and how does it differ from traditional testing approaches?

• TDD and traditional testing approaches are identical in their process.

• TDD involves writing tests before code implementation, focusing on small iterations, and ensuring code meets requirements. Traditional testing writes code first and then creates tests.

• TDD involves writing code first and then creating tests, focusing on large iterations.

• Traditional testing involves writing tests before code implementation.

What is Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) and how is it beneficial for Agile teams?

• BDD leads to confusion and misunderstandings in Agile teams

• BDD does not promote collaboration among team members

• BDD is only beneficial for Waterfall teams

• BDD is beneficial for Agile teams as it fosters collaboration, ensures shared understanding of requirements, and enables automated testing based on behavior specifications.

How does Continuous Integration play a crucial role in Agile Testing?

• Continuous Integration is not relevant in Agile Testing

• Continuous Integration helps in detecting issues early, maintaining quality, and delivering working software in short iterations in Agile Testing.

• Continuous Integration only focuses on manual testing in Agile Testing

• Continuous Integration slows down the development process in Agile Testing

Name some popular Agile Testing tools used in the industry.

• QTest

• SoapUI

• LoadRunner

• Jira, Selenium, Appium, Postman, TestRail

What is the importance of early and continuous testing in Agile projects?

• Early and continuous testing in Agile projects is important for identifying issues early, providing quick feedback, maintaining quality, and reducing costs.

• Identifying issues late in the project is more effective than early testing in Agile projects

• Continuous testing can be skipped in Agile projects

• Early testing is not necessary in Agile projects

How can Agile Testing help in achieving faster feedback and improved quality?

• By promoting continuous collaboration, frequent communication, and early testing throughout the development process.

• By limiting communication between team members

• By avoiding collaboration with stakeholders

• By skipping testing until the end of the development cycle

What are the advantages of involving testers in the project from the beginning in Agile development?

• Decreasing efficiency, delaying identification of issues, hindering communication

• Identifying issues early, improving communication, ensuring quality, increasing efficiency

What are some common challenges faced by Agile Testing teams and how can they be overcome?

• Ensure clear communication with stakeholders, involve them in the testing process, prioritize tasks effectively, and adapt to changes quickly.

• Resisting change and new methodologies

• Micromanaging team members

• Ignoring stakeholder feedback
