摘要：Recently, the software development in the industry is moving towards agile due to the advantages providedby the agile development process. Main advantages of agile software development process are: deliveringhigh quality software in shorter intervals and embracing change. Testing is a vital activity for delivering ahigh quality software product. Often testing accounts for more project effort and time than any othersoftware development activities. Testing strategies for conventional process models are well established,but these strategies are not directly applicable to agile testing without modifications and changes. In thispaper, a novel method for agile testing in the scrum software development environment is proposed andpresented. The sprint and testing activities which form the context for the proposed testing method arepresented. The proposed method is applied on two cases studies. The results indicated that the testing timecan be reduced considerably by applying the proposed method.
