Mon, 09 Aug 2004Testing contributions to the Agile Times I edit the "Testing Tips" section of the Agile Times, the Agile Alliance newsletter. You can find sample copies here: Issue One The latest issue is only available to Agile Alliance members. If you'd like to send a testing-related article to me, please do. Articles are usually short - a few hundred words. I like practical content: "I tried this. You could too." Jeff Patton's and Zhon Johansen's story below would make a swell article. If it comes before August 25, your article could make it into the next issue, but send articles any time to marick@exampler.com. Expect light and shared editing before publication. Thanks. Update: fixed broken link.

There's an interview with me at whatistesting.com. I'm rather pleased with this answer:
The emotion behind that answer looms ever larger. Why do I push the Agile methods? One of my two main reasons is the chance to reclaim joy in work.

A nice story from Jeff Patton, told on the Agile Usability mailing list. Copied with permission.
Update: Jeff queried the original teller, Zhon Johansen, who wrote back. (Copied without permission; don't hurt me, Zhon.)
This isn't quite a Big Visible Chart, but it's something like that.

Workshop reminder: Tests as Documentation I've posted before about a workshop that Jonathan Kohl and I are doing at XP/Agile Universe titled "Tests as Documentation". If you were planning to come, let me remind you of this: "We encourage anyone working on a software project who writes tests to [...] bring their tests and code with them." It'd be a good time to start picking some tests to bring. Thanks.
