Description

This course provides an introduction to the role of Quality Assurance (QA) within Agile software development environments. Agile emphasizes iterative, rapid delivery, and QA plays a crucial role in ensuring that the software is continuously tested for quality at every stage of the development process. Participants will learn how to effectively integrate QA practices into Agile sprints, enabling teams to identify and address issues early in the development cycle.Participants will explore how QA contributes to cross-functional teams by participating in daily standups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives to ensure that quality is embedded throughout the process.Additionally, the course covers the essentials of bug reporting, focusing on using tools like Asana to track, prioritize, and communicate defects clearly.
