Have you ever asked a tester, “How in the world did you find that bug?” Or maybe you’re being asked to pick up testing activities on your agile cross-functional team—or just wondering what that strange language is the testers are speaking. Agile testing is its own unique skill set, and as quality has become a team responsibility, more and more agile testing is being performed by non-testers.

Increasingly, developers and others are being asked to test and shift left, but they are rarely given the tools to ensure their testing is up to snuff. This often results in wasted time and effort, not to mention costly bugs. Jenna Charlton will explore some of the basics of exploratory testing, testing terminology, and how you can start to think like a tester.

Key takeaways:
- session-based testing with charters
- testing vocabulary and techniques
- the testing pyramid
- understanding and communicating risk
- why automation isn’t always the answer.
