Agile Methodology in Testing: A Beginner’s Guide By QA Company in Dallas USA

Agile testing is one of the critical part of application development life cycle and in this digital world it has huge impact on development process. In this post today as a part of top and leading QA Company in the Dallas USA, I am going to take a deep dive into the world of Agile testing to know more about its Testing methodology.

What is Agile Testing?

Agile testing is one of the best and top practice of software testing in which software testers follows the rules and methodology of agile development. It is not similar to the Waterfall model, Agile testing start from the first of project with continuous integration between development and testing.
To keep this things in a mind, let’s have a look at what are the top Agile Test Methodology to consider while doing agile testing
• Test-Driven Development (TDD)
• Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD)
• Behavior-Driven Development (BDD)
• Exploratory Testing
• Session-Based Testing

Test-Driven Development (TDD)
TDD is one of the top software development approach used by QA engineers in which test cases are developed to specify and validate. In a simple words in the agile testing methodology Test cases are design first in case if test cases fails then new code must be prepare to recheck the test.
TDD start with developing a test cases. Which can be done with the help of automation testing.

Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD)
ATDD is kind of programming technique it is completely different from TDD. The main purpose of ATDD is to collaborate the different teams members like testers, engineers, business stakeholders etc. to ensure the developers actually build what the customer needs.

Behavior-Driven Development (BDD)
Behavior Driven Development is another most important methodology in agile software development that improve the collaboration between teams of developers, QA. Behavior-driven development often stems from TDD and ATDD.

Exploratory Testing
In this type of software testing where Test cases are not prepared in advance but software testers needs to check system on the fly. This type of testing typically used to find hidden risks within a product. Software testers can overcome the errors and bugs which are missed in functional testing.

Session-Based Testing
We can also say Session-Based Testing is similar to the exploratory testing. Session-based testing is also used to find hidden bugs within a project.
