Tuesday, 22 April 2014. Once an agile team is established and has started delivering working software, a test strategy retrospective can help to determine whether everyone in the team knows what the test strategy is, and agrees on which aspects of the strategy have been implemented.

With an iOS app, an android app, and a website optimised for mobile. I asked those who were able to bring a laptop, in order to compare mobile and web functionality. After...

Thomas Vaniotis has decided that he wants to get beyond the buzzwords and actually discuss Lean Startup and make the case that Lean Startup is all about testing. Thomas used a number of interesting examples (Zappos, Dropbox, etc.) and how they made their minimum ...
