Agile’s most defining qualities are speed of delivery and testing friendliness. Automating the tests and building a sustainable, low-maintenance framework is the key to maximizing Agile’s benefits. Doing it right requires new thinking and strategic methods—not old or random test automation practices. When coupled with testing and driven by Action Based Testing (ABT), Agile practices will improve system development and test development.
Agile’s additional value lies with its ability to benefit your company by constructing a collaborative environment. Testers rely on developers, who rely on designers, who rely on automation.
It is our belief at LogiGear that good test design drives automation success. We also believe that, when used properly, Action Based Testing is the key method with which to optimize your test design and automation. We have written a new eBook that highlights the most important aspects of Agile automation; it will teach you everything you need to know about the relationship between Agile and testing, including:
- How Action Based Testing (ABT) drives Agile test automation.
- How to improve your automation using better test design.
- How to ensure that your Agile test automation will be successful.
Automation is a costly investment, and can be a waste of resources if used incorrectly. But when successfully implemented, automation has a return on investment with significant time savings, and increased confidence in your release. Our new Agile Automation ebook will show you how to successfully implement the Action Based Testing methodology and how it will benefit you in the long run. Ultimately, the successful implementation will have a positive effect on your bottom line by improving the integrity of your product, so you and users both win. Download the eBook here today!
