This document outlines an incremental approach to QA that combines elements of QA, agile practices, and automation. It emphasizes valuing individuals, working software, customer collaboration, and response to change over rigid processes, documentation, contracts, and plans. The approach involves embedding QA specialists within cross-functional teams to collaboratively develop high-quality software through open discussion.
