Test Process, 1999 Conference
The move from a waterfall to agile is not straightforward for
experienced testers. You need to throw away your old process
(=Revolution) and then improve the new process constantly
(=Evolution). Usually, it is not possible to have a full scale
revolution at once. That makes the evolution even more important.
An effective approach to speed up the evolution is to take the
seven wastes of lean management as a guideline.
This presentation is my diary for test process improvement,
spanning from EuroSTAR 2010 in Copenhagen to the 2011 conference in
Manchester. It highlights the evolution of three agile teams in a
Finnish major company.
Waste is often produced by applying good practices in the wrong
place. It can also be caused by very practical things like bad
seating arrangements. However, the biggest waste is to optimize the
wrong things - e.g. the detection of defects instead of their
prevention.
