Today I watched a talk from the Google Tech talk series by Elisabeth Hendrickson on YouTube. This talk provides a good overview of testing in an agile project. She talks about:

• Agile methodologies in general
• Test driven coding
• User stories and acceptance test cases
• Documenting test cases
• Testing when all features are not complete.

Watch Video:

To understand this talk, it requires no previous knowledge of agile methodologies as the presenter starts with an explanation of agile methodologies.

We adopt some of these practices at OrangeHRM, which uses a hybrid process that includes chosen practices from both agile and plan-driven methodologies. I am planning watch the whole video again with the team and have a discussion. It’ll be interesting to identify how we could further improve the way we do things.
