Agile Testing: A Practical Guide for Testers and Agile Teams

Part III The Agile Testing Quadrants

Software quality has many dimensions, each requiring a different testing approach. How do we know all the different types of tests we need to do? How do we know when we’re “done” testing? Who does which tests and how? In this part, we explain how to use the Agile Testing Quadrants to make sure your team covers all needed categories of testing.

Of course, testing requires tools, and we’ve included examples of tools to use, strategies for using those tools effectively, and guidelines about when to use them. Tools are easier to use when used with code that’s designed for testability. These concerns and more are discussed in this part of the book.
