What Are Peculiarities of an Agile Project for
Testers?
Agile software development is widely used as it
enables to shorten the time to market of the
software product and the customers get a return
on investment sooner than in case of ordinary
software development process. Agile development
process sets some challenges before the test
engineers and programmers. Mobile testing,
desktop testing and web site testing during an
agile project differ from the common ones.

• Test Engineers Point out Such Hallmarks of an
  Agile Project
• unstable, frequently changing system
• active customer participation in the project
• many iterations
• little documentation
• automated testing is frequently required.

These aspects are not relevant to ordinary
development process.
They complicate execution of proper software
testing and demand more effort and
concentration from the test engineers.

Testers?

• It turns out that automation is among the most
  complex tasks of agile software
• testing. It is hard to write scripts when
• the application is often altered, especially at
  the beginning, when there is too little
• stable code. But latter automated tests
• are very helpful for regression testing.

Testers?
The automated tests should be easily
maintainable. New tests are added to the
regression tests with the application
development, and some existing ones may require
correction. That is why it is crucial to select
the appropriate tools for automation in an agile
project.
