Testing in agile projects
Košťál, Ondřej ; Buchalcevová, Alena (advisor) ; Kučera, Jan (referee)
This thesis deals with the description of software testing in agile projects. Unlike the traditionally managed projects, testing in agile projects is not a discrete phase. In agile managed projects, testing is integrated into the entire development process. Testing takes place continuously throughout the project to ensure frequent delivery of valuable software in short development cycles. The aim of this diploma thesis is to create a comprehensive description of software testing in agile projects. The introductory part describes in detail the principles and values of the Agile Manifesto, as it is the cornerstone of the whole agile concept. Next, the basic differences between the traditional and agile approach to software development, aspects of agile design testing and agile methodology are described. The following section looks into the matter of the agile team, that includes its size, structure, and approaches that an agile team uses during its work. In terms of testing, this is in particular the Whole-Team Approach. The thesis then describes the role of the agile tester, his/her knowledge, skills and activities, which contribute to the creation of valuable software. As next, the key agile artifacts, meetings, and practices related to testing are described. The final part of this thesis presents the principles and practices of agile testing. Another aim is to design a teaching concept for 4IT479 - Software Testing in Agile Projects. The teaching concept is designed based on the theoretical knowledge described in this thesis. The teaching concept is further complemented by simulations that help students better acquire the theoretical knowledge.

Design and implementation of Agile testing methodology
Kemr, Jakub ; Buchalcevová, Alena (advisor) ; Doležel, Michal (referee)
The thesis focuses on the area of testing within Agile software development. The goal of the thesis is to design and implement a methodology for Agile testing in a specific project using the Eclipse Process Framework Composer tool based on an analysis of the testing process and related procedures in a specific, Agile development team. The thesis is divided into three parts. Theoretical part deals with the principal definitions and introduction to the topic and differences between Waterfall and Agile project management. The conclusion of the theoretical part is focused on the actual status of Agile development and growing importance of testing in Agile teams. The second part of the thesis is devoted on the characteristics of methodologies that the thesis is based on. These methodologies are compared to the requirements of extended methodology for Agile testing. The next part is an analysis of the processes and procedures in the Agile development team based on division of the development process into individual parts. Based on the analysis, and another three surveys there are identified problems in the software testing area. The third part is devoted to designing extension of methodology for Agile testing, its characteristics and implementation using the EPFC tool. Based on the extended and implemented methodology MMSP-AV, the main contribution of the thesis is the elimination of the identified problems and the overall improvement of the testing process. The default methodology MMSP is extended by Agile testing, User Experience testing and wide variety of key elements of the Agile software development. Final part summarizes all the lessons learned and opportunities for further expansion of the thesis and published methodology.
