Agile Testing; Some Thoughts on the Progress Way


With Cloud-based software solutions and rapidly changing user requirements, frequent releases happen in the software development. Agile software development process is designed to handle such frequent releases in an effective manner. Agile development process significantly impacts the way we test and assess the quality of a software product. We have some practices that are being followed by our QA team at Progress Software India which tremendously help us in achieving frequent releases successfully. Some of these include activities such as same sprint automation, 24x7 testing, sufficient amount of exploratory testing, A/B testing etc. We also follow some best practices thereby reduced our GoLive testing to be completed in less than 30 mins even for major Cloud releases with agile practices.

    1. A/B testing is a technique used for testing say the effect of two versions of web page on the viewers. For example, we can analyse and find out which of the two versions are appreciated by customers and thereby make market-oriented engineering decisions.
