Quality driven testing principles

I’ve been exposed to Agile/Scrum for a while and recently I tried to summarize some testing principles which are all concerned with quality.

Test Driven

• Test cases and unit test will be developed prior to coding any lines
• Unit test will be required to ensure the quality of the refactoring

Test Early

• Deliverables in each sprint/iteration will be tested in a timely manner
• Customer will never be surprised in the last minute due to the incremental testing efforts in each sprint.

Test Often

• Continuous integration will be employed to test against each successfully build
• Tests will be executed basing on sprint or iteration.

Test Unattended

• Build automation will be performed overnight
• Automated testing will be leaveraged
• Report will be automatically pushed to stakeholders

Test Completely

• code coverage will be introduced to ensure the coverage of your tests
• traceability between test assets and source code will be established
• regression tests will be conducted timely (through automated most likely)

Test Comprehensively

• Strict coding guidelines will help developer to code in a more secure way.
• Performance/load testing will be conducted to ensure the deliverables are reliable
• Static code examination will reduce the risk of security.
