In this episode, we dive deeper into the Agile Testing Quadrants and the testing pyramid, exploring how these frameworks guide effective testing strategies. We’ll discuss the value of using real customer examples when designing tests and the importance of developing and testing “thin slices” or “steel threads” to ensure end-to-end functionality.

We also cover the benefits of testing with mocks and the efficiency of small pull requests in maintaining code quality. Additionally, we address the potential pitfalls of overemphasizing consensus, which can hinder progress, and highlight the importance of fostering an environment that encourages risk-taking and continuous learning.

Finally, we provide insights on managing your relationship with your manager to ensure a productive and supportive work environment.

Join us for expert tips on refining your agile testing approach and enhancing team dynamics.
