DevOpsAgile

CONTEMPORARY MODELS FOR SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

TO AUTOMATE OR NOT

Parameters to consider

Cost Vs Resources

Time required for manual testing Vs

automation

Project scope

Stakeholders readiness for inputs

MAKING TEST AUTOMATION EFFECTIVE

APPROPRIATE TIMING

Testing should be prompt and meet the

demands of an Agile approach

IMPLEMENT REGRESSION TESTING

Speeds up & improves test efficiency by

automating repetitive tests

QA team does not have to change the

test scripts often to validate regression

OFFER COMPLETE VISIBILITY

Enhanced visibility on how automation

makes the testing cycle better leads to

better collaborations

Keeps the team bound to processes

and the automated framework

AUTOMATE SELECTIVE

COMPONENTS ONLY

Determine tests that are relevant to the

solution

Certain tests can be excluded from

automation

Tests that slowdown the test cycle

Tests that are better performed manually

TAKE INTO ACCOUNT BUSINESS CASE

CONSIDERATIONS

Consider RoI benefits

Automate step by step to evaluate

EXPLORE IDEAS & TOOLS

Ideation will lead to better automation

scope with product quality

Decide the test plan & refine

requirements baseline with

brainstorming

Projections can be better charted by

leveraging state-of-the-art tools

PREDICTIONS FOR AGILE TESTING

THE NEXT FEW YEARS

The old test excellence centers are bound to become extinct

Key players in the Agile Development landscape
