The document discusses the Agile Fluency model, which aims to help teams and testers improve their agile skills and practices over time. It describes a pathway with increasing levels of fluency that provide more benefits, including delivering value, optimizing value, and innovating. Reaching higher levels requires investments in training, coaching, and changing team structures and roles. The model can help organizations determine what level of fluency they need and what investments are required for testing teams to operate at that level.
