Program Overview: What is Agile Testing?
Agile Testing is Edstellar's instructor-led program for teams that plan, execute, and automate tests inside short agile iterations. Participants learn to write testable user stories, run structured exploratory and API tests, and build maintainable automation frameworks. The program covers test planning, acceptance criteria, defect management, and quality metrics leaders trust.
Training is hands-on from the first module. Participants practice risk-based test planning and acceptance criteria on real story examples, then run exploratory and API tests inside sprint simulations. Instructors coach your team through automation framework design and CI integration, reviewing every test suite with direct feedback. The program closes with a capstone: a full end-to-end agile test sprint, plan, execute, automate, and report.
Testing too often lags behind development: automation that breaks on every change, defects found late, and quality reported in metrics nobody acts on. This program teaches your team to test inside the sprint, with the whole team sharing quality ownership. Every technique is practiced in labs, so better testing habits transfer directly to your sprints.
Testers plan, execute, automate, and report on a full product increment, then defend their strategy. The result: quality gets shaped from sprint start instead of bottlenecking at sprint end.
Across six modules, teams move from agile testing foundations and the tester's role in Scrum to risk-based test planning, exploratory and API testing, automation in CI pipelines, and defect management with quality dashboards. The capstone is a full end-to-end test sprint: plan, execute, automate, and report on a product increment, then present the strategy to stakeholders. Every module pairs concepts with guided hands-on labs, and the program adapts to your stack, sprint cadence, and tooling.

Agile Testing Course Topics and Program Outline
A tailored 24-hour, six-module workshop: one learning journey from agile testing foundations to a capstone test sprint. Sessions pair concepts with guided labs in realistic test environments, and the program adapts to your stack and sprint cadence.
Built by Edstellar with working QA engineers
Built by test engineers and SDETs who run agile testing and CI pipelines in production every week, shaped around your stack and use cases.
We map your team's testing maturity, sprint cadence, and defect patterns to target the practices that will move quality fastest.
Instructors teach agile testing foundations, quadrants, and the tester's role in Scrum with live demos in every session.
Your team runs guided labs: exploratory sessions, API checks, and automation suites wired into CI pipelines.
The capstone test sprint puts it together: plan, execute, and report on a real increment with instructor review.
Every module pairs live instruction with a guided lab, so testing skills are proven in realistic environments before the capstone sprint.

Integrate Agile Testing With Sprint Decisions and Quality Evidence
Edstellar helps cross-functional teams make testing part of the sprint rather than a final checkpoint. Participants write testable criteria, plan around risk, explore behavior, test APIs, and integrate automation with CI. A complete test sprint brings the evidence together in a quality report that supports a clear discussion of remaining risks.
- Step 01
Consult
We review sprint practices and shared quality responsibilities to identify gaps in acceptance criteria, exploratory coverage, API checks, automation, or defect triage.
- Step 02
Plan
We connect agile testing foundations with risk-based planning, exploratory and API testing, CI automation, and feedback practices before completing an end-to-end test sprint.
- Step 03
Align
We align instruction with QA, development, product, and Scrum responsibilities, adjusting technical depth while keeping shared acceptance criteria and quality decisions visible.
- Step 04
Customize
We tailor backlog slices, service contracts, and defect scenarios to familiar products while retaining practice in time-boxed exploration, automation design, and quality gates.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants plan tests, explore features, verify APIs, and wire automation into CI, receiving feedback on coverage, maintainability, and the evidence supporting defect priorities.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the test sprint’s plan, execution evidence, and quality report for risk coverage, credible findings, useful automation, and clear communication of unresolved issues.
