Fundamentals of Agile Test Automation—ICAgile Certification (ICP-ATA)
- Explore strategies for integrating automation within the agile lifecycle
- Understand how to collaborate with business analysts, developers, and customers to integrate automation into your team's workflow
- Work without the need of separate, independent test automation teams
- Explore how complex non-functional testing can be automated in a sprint
Most agile teams deliver shippable software at the end of each sprint, but some agile teams ship working software every day. Confidence at this speed can be achieved with the help of automated tests. Explore the many ways automation supports agile testing activities in this introductory course.
Learn about automation techniques to improve regression testing, story and feature testing, and continuous integration. Test automation purpose, theory, and principles are reviewed, as well as how test automation is implemented in diverse organizations.
This course provides real-world, vendor-neutral examples of agile test automation approaches and tools. Examples of automated tests for Test Driven Development (TDD), Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD), and Behavior Driven Development (BDD) will be given, in addition to example test descriptions, source code samples, and example test scripts.
Who Should Attend
This course is for all agile team members and those involved in the process of building, testing, and deploying software. Product owners, managers, and other business leaders will gain important insights into the benefits and trade-offs related to agile test automation. No specific prerequisites are assumed, and any technical concepts will be explained; however, attendees are expected to have some agile knowledge or experience. Technical practitioners and those currently involved in automation should consider Agile Test Automation for Practitioners.
