helping establish a
Quality and Test
First Mind Set
Corporate Definition of Done Guideline
Definition of Done with Quality Goals
Break down that Dev QA wall
Best way I have found
to start breaking
down the wall …
One Story at a Time
It is not a one person
team
It is not easy to change some people
But through coaching and
Everyone having a
Test First Mind Set
Setting common
quality goals
And
Use
ATDD/BDD
Building in Quality starts with
an Agile Product Management
organization
APM means just enough
product definition
Think Quality First!
Quality at the Agile Team level is Essential… but
At some point it has
to all come together
Most software applications interact with other APPS
Integrate and Test Often
Continuous Integration and Testing
People in the team with DEVOPS skills will help establish a CI process

Teams Integrate and Test Often
Test Automation
Record and Playback – Be careful of the huge promises
It cannot be used effectively to scale anything
Watch for the
“Scriptless Tools”
Building Blocks of a Quality Mindset
Scaling Quality starts by Building it in
$$$
Cheaper to
Build in Quality
than to
Test it in
$$$$$$$$$
Don’t Compromise
or Give Up on
Quality
Deliver Quality
