Consequences agile manifesto for testing
• Individuals and interaction over processes and tools• Don’t stick to the method/handbook but choose the best way of testing in a
given situation
• Working software over comprehensive documentation• More focus on actual test execution, less documenting detailed test scripts
(upfront)
• Customer collaboration over contract negotiation• Use ways of testing in which you can involve the customer
• Respond to change over following the plan• Less test planning, don’t stick to the method/handbook
