Learning objectives
You will gain insight into the different directions in which the role of test manager can develop in different organisations, depending on how a given organisation chooses to shift to agile development. In many organisations, development follows a mix of waterfall and agile methods. We will examine how the role can be filled in such a situation.
The course will give you:
- An understanding of how the role changes as an organisation becomes more agile
- An overview of where quality is created in agile development
- Knowledge of how the role can contribute to agile principles
- Knowledge of how planning, oversight, and control can be performed
- Training in agile principles
- An understanding of servant leadership
- Knowledge of how you can develop personally
