New Ways of Testing

About

Testing is more than just executing random tests on a developed system in an attempt to break it. Testing consists of an entire process, adapted to the applied software development lifecycle model, to measure whether the system is of sufficient quality. The publication of the Agile Manifesto in 2001 was an important milestone for the new approaches to software development. In this session you will learn how testers bring added value throughout the different phases of this 'new' way of working. The objectives of testing never changed, so what are the major differences with the old skool way of working? Do you need to use and create other work products? What about tasks and responsibilities? And again: what are best practices, pitfalls, tips & tricks?
