Agile and QA

• Agile is a methodology that is being widely used
  to develop a software these days.
• For a QA professional, an agile approach can be
  very thwarting, as they are used to validate a
  finished product to verify, but in agile
  methodology they have to validate an ever
  changing product.
• It means that the use of technology and
  automation are much more difficult and it
  requires a newer methodology to testing.
• With the emergence of Test Driven Development,
  some suggest the future of QA is shrouded in mist
  and now Test Driven Development (TDD) is the
  future of testing. But, what is most important,
  is that QA is directly involved in the agile
  scrimmages all the way through to be an integral
  part of the team designing the tests, at the same
  time as the necessities and solutions advance.
