What you’ll learn in this presentation:
Intelliware’s Chief Technologist, BC Holmes, provides a pragmatic overview of Agile testing. Complete with many examples, this presentation is ideal for those looking for a practical take on software testing in an Agile environment.
The presentation covers:
- Why do we use Agile testing?
- What Agile testing isn’t
- What Agile testing is: unit testing and test-driven development (TDD)
- High-level properties of good tests
- Testing in different languages
- Test suites and code coverage
- Using mock objects to help isolate units
- Beyond unit testing
Continuous delivery requires more that DevOps. It also requires one to think differently about product design, development & testing, and the overall structure of the organization. This presentation will help you understand what it takes and why one would want to deliver value to your customers multiple times each day. #CIC

Continuous Deployment, TDD and Continuous Integration is nothing new anymore and many of you are already veterans deploying multiple times each day code into production. But you’re still suffering from cutting corners and doing something quick on production when time is pressing, violating the processes you all worked hard on to get approved.
In this talk we take this very concept to the next level and show you how we used unconventional ways to deploy faster with less issues and regained control over a 10+ year old legacy application.

Integrating Quality into Project Portfolio ManagementChris Sterling
Traditionally, projects are managed based on cost, schedule, and scope. This continues to be insufficient and leads to poor outcomes, unsustainable development efforts, quality issues, and software that may meet requirements but not the expectations of users. This talk will go into how organizations can integrate quality and value considerations into their portfolio management strategies leading to less surprises and more valuable outcomes. The talk will go into detail about how Agile, Lean thinking, and Managing Software Debt can give a more holistic view of the project portfolio.

Right on the heels of the Manifesto for Agile Software Development, a new movement with the moniker DevOps has further advanced software delivery. Although the Agile software development movement brought iterative and incremental concepts to our industry, in many organizations its reach was relegated to only the application development teams. In many cases, this moved the bottlenecks in organizations from application development to release management, IT operations and business program and portfolio management decision making. This local optimization leads to real world application of Agile software development being perceived as unsuccessful and increased probability of being thrown away for the comfort in the illusions of control of plan-driven approaches.
The promise of DevOps is to further improve our ability to make holistic optimizations from business to software delivery to operations and ultimately increase feedback into our business decision making processes. This promise involves the application of The Three Ways as described by Gene Kim: Flow, Feedback and Continuous Experimentation and Learning. Even for those that were able to take advantage of Agile software development we can not sit on our laurels. We must embrace continuous improvement in order to fend off the effects of “Software is Eating the World” as Marc Andreessen pronounced. DevOps provides a view on the culture, practices, tools and processes for how valuable software is delivered, operated and evolved to enable competitive advantage.

Don’t Go over the Waterfall: Keep Agile Testing AgileTechWell
All too often an agile iteration resembles a mini-waterfall cycle with developers coding for the duration of the iteration and then throwing code “over the wall” to the test team. This results in the all-too-familiar “test squeeze” with testers often testing code after the iteration has already finished. When testing occurs after an iteration’s end, the agile principle of potentially releasable is violated and negatively impacts the next iteration. To avoid these problems we must ensure that all testing is completed before the end of the iteration. But how can we achieve this? Aaron Barrett explains that the solution lies in the planning and processes that govern the agile team. Learn proven strategies that allow your test teams to move testing back inside the iteration and take back a plan to keep you from going over the waterfall.
The original promise of TDD was that it would assist in guiding the development of clean code, but it often ends up polluting our architecture with excessive composition, is expensive to write, and becomes an obstacle to change, not an aid to refactoring. In this talk, we look at the fallacies of TDD and learn about the key principles that we should be following for mastery of this practice. This talk is intended for those who have been practicing TDD, or who have tried TDD and given up because of shortcomings in the approach they were taught.
Intelliware’s Chief Technologist, BC Holmes, provides a pragmatic overview of Agile testing. Complete with many examples, this presentation is ideal for those looking for a practical take on software testing in an Agile environment.
Test Automation on Large Agile Projects: It's Not a CakewalkTechWell
Automating regression testing on large-scale agile projects with multiple independent Scrum teams is not a cake walk. Because there is no single "test team" that performs all the testing-each Scrum team develops and runs independent tests, gaps arise as different automation implementations spring up. One team adds a new function which breaks automated tests, setting back the progress of other teams. Scott Schnier reviews one organization's journey developing a "test community of practice" to coordinate test development and maintenance across Scrum teams. Scott shares the lessons they learned, particularly selecting tools compatible with other developer and tester needs. Learn how Scott extended the JUnit framework to support automated functional testing and how his teams keep the standard that a user story is not really done until all its tests are "green" in the continuous integration, regression test pipeline. Take back a new appreciation for the challenges-and solutions-for automating testing on really big agile projects.

Quality Jam: BDD, TDD and ATDD for the EnterpriseQASymphony
During Quality Jam 2016 I had the privilege of presenting with one of QASymphony's earliest customers, Better Cloud, on how methodologies like BDD, TDD and ATDD scale for the enterprises. Adam Satterfield is the VP of Quality Assurance at Bettercloud and has been in QA for many years; he has taught me a lot about Behavior Driven Development, Test Driven Development, Acceptance Test Driven Development. In the session we share a new way of testing-- what Adam and I believe to be the next generation of testing development.
We know that there are several ways to do testing and we are just showing one new way to do it - If this session doesn't inspire action, hopefully it will at least give you and your team something to think about.
This is a training that I conducted on Agile Testing. There is a lot of confusion around how Testing Professionals are impacted when they move from Traditional development models to Agile development models. This training attempted to clear some of the confusion around that.
Agile Gurugram 2019 Conferecne | A "Quality" Debate - Rethinking the mindset ...AgileNetwork
Session Title : A "Quality" Debate - Rethinking the mindset for non-negotiable Quality in Software Products
Session Overview : One of the key reasons for embracing agility is faster feedback which helps improve the perceived quality of a software product. And every team is focused towards delivering quality, no one wakes up in the morning with an idea to introduce defects, we naturally ideate to solve problems. Unknowingly though, dysfunctions always creep in and identifying a dysfunction is extremely difficult especially when you are a part of the dysfunction.
In this 45 min talk, discussion is about the importance of quality and how it's no longer negotiable even if Project Management principles tell us otherwise. Stories from past experience, and from organisations ranging from GM to Mumbai Dabbawalas that have embraced the "Quality is not Negotiable" principle and seen the difference.
I present the context of defect severity and how these may create an illusion of quality; how accountability of a single person (e.g.: Product Owner) may result in a "Lack of Commitment" dysfunction; and how cost is not really proportional to quality especially when it comes to delivering virtual products and services related to it.
Repeating the "Quality Debate" @ Agile Gurugram 2019 ConferenceVishal Prasad
My presentation slides from the Agile Gurugram 2019 Conference. Here I discuss the value of quality and how dysfunctions may affect it.
Every team is focused towards delivering quality, no one wakes up in the morning with an idea to introduce defects, we naturally ideate to solve problems. Unknowingly though, dysfunctions always creep in and identifying a dysfunction is extremely difficult especially when you are a part of the dysfunction. The context of defect severity and how these may create an illusion of quality; how accountability of a single person (e.g.: Product Owner) may result in a "Lack of Commitment" dysfunction; and how cost is not proportional to quality especially when it comes to delivering virtual products and services related to it.
Imagine that you are responsible for guiding a software product during its next few releases...
The developers on your team are diligently writing tests. You've never looked at the tests. The testers on your team can't seem to follow them.
When customers audit your development process they ignore these tests even though your developers assure you the tests are easy to follow.
You're working iteratively on the next release. You're making yourself available to the team. You're having great conversations. And yet, when features are delivered you realize the team misunderstood your perspective.
Someone from support drops by with a question. No one on the team can remember exactly how that feature from the last release works. The document you created to guide development is out of date. Jira tickets lack detail. The developers start digging into the source code for answers.
There has to be a better way. There is. It's called Specification by Example.
Specification by Example is a collaborative software development apporach that facilitates collaboration by illustrating software requirements with concrete examples and automated acceptance tests.
Alistair will show you how to succeed with Specification by Example by sharing his experiences from over ten years of implementing it with multiple teams.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
