Agile Testing: A Practical Guide for Testers and Agile Teams

Chapter 11 Critiquing the Product Using Technology-Facing Tests

This chapter is focused on the bottom right corner of our testing quadrant. We’ve looked at driving development with both business-facing and technology-facing tests. After the code is written, we are no longer driving the development but are looking at ways to critique the product. In the previous chapter, we examined ways to critique from a business point of view. Now we look at ways to critique from a technology-facing point of view. These tests are an important means of evaluating whether our product delivers the right business value.
