Overview/Description

This 14-video course explores Agile methodologies that can be used to adopt the Agile testing paradigm. Examine benefits and challenges associated with Agile testing, and best practices and guidelines that can be adopted to implement Agile testing practices. Learners will observe lifecycle phases for testing within Agile frameworks; use Cucumber behavior-driven development (BDD) framework to write acceptance tests; and learn approaches for tracking test progress and product quality metrics used to evaluate Agile test implementation outcomes. Learn how to define responsibilities of testers in Agile projects and tools and products used to set up Agile testing workflows; view different Agile testing levels; and work with Cucumber-JVM and Selenium Webdriver in Java to implement Agile testing with BDD. Explore the role of Agile Testing Quadrants and how they reflect the What-Testing-When approach, and configure test management in Jira to implement Agile testing for REST application programming interfaces (APIs). Conclude by exploring the Whole Team Approach, and learning to configure Agile project management by using Scrum and Kanban with Jira.
