The very title of this class is meant to challenge your preconceptions. Many prefer terms like adoption, migration, or business agility shift. However, successful implementations of shift-left testing within agile requires a transformation to occur at multiple levels and goes beyond mere implementation of testing within time-boxed sprints, attending daily standups, and reviewing product backlogs. This class was created because so many organizations struggle with effectively integrating testing within agile approaches. Join Shaun as we explore critical patterns for transformations including identifying an agile champion for testing, adding test leaders within the Agile Transformation Team, and how to communicate the WHY behind testing transformation. We’ll also explore some of the organizational challenges that you’ll have to overcome. Finally, we’ll review the role leadership plays in safety, culture, modeling, and generally guiding the transformation journey. You’ll leave this class with ideas around how testing can be incorporated into an effective transformation backlog that you can immediately start executing for your own agile testing transformations.
