Test Manager in agile projects
The role of a test manager changes when the development model becomes more agile. We will focus on these changes, and how you can fill this role in an agile project.
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
