Agile software development has grown in popularity and usage over the decades. As a result, the amount of literature about the subject has also grown tremendously. However most of the books currently available on the market focus on the project management or software development areas of the software development life cycle, there is still very little for the agile software tester to read. In the agile world testing and the Software QA Tester are just as important as any other process or person and that is why I have written this book. Hopefully experienced and new QA's alike will find some useful pointers within these humble pages which will help them enhance their career and enjoyment of testing software. The QA professionals involvement in agile projects remains challenging because of the very different nature of the agile methodology compared to older methodologies such as waterfall and the V model. This is also not helped by a level of misunderstanding about the true nature of agile that still persists in many companies and deep-rooted prejudices aimed at QA's by some programmers and project managers (they are nothing more than failed programmers being a common feeling). Although there are many QA professionals succeeding in agile projects, many others continue to struggle to succeed and achieve their true potential that their skills and dedication deserve. QA's who have spent many years testing outside of agile can also often struggle to make the jump across the waterfall. However with quality training, good management and self-belief this jump can be completed, this is where the fifth edition of this book comes in.
