The various agile testing methods as follows:

  • Behavior Driven Development (BDD)
  • Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD)
  • Exploratory Testing

Behavior Driven Development (BDD)

  • Firstly, Behavior Driven Development (BDD) enhances communication amongst project stakeholders in order to create understanding before the development process starts.
  • Moreover, there is constant example-based communication between developers, testers, and business analysts.

 

 

Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD)

  • Secondly, ATDD incorporates customer, developer, and tester. “Three Amigos” hold three different roles and use them to define acceptance tests. The customer pays attention to the problem, the developer pays attention to how to solve the problem, and the tester looks at what can go wrong.
  • In addition, the acceptance test represents a user’s perspective and specify how the system will function. Acceptance tests are often mechanical. Like in the BDD approach, acceptance tests are written first, they initially fail, and then software functionality is built around the tests until they pass.

 

Exploratory Testing

  • Lastly, in exploratory testing, the test execution and design phase go together. Moreover, it focuses on interacting with working software instead of separately planning, building, and running tests.
  • Further, exploratory testing allows testers to “play with” the software in a disarray. Testers mimic possible user behaviors and get creative, trying to find actions or edge cases that will break the software. Testers do not document the exact process, but they find a defect and then document it as usual.
