It felt as
if there were two camps in the late ‘80s 4 © 2011 Johanna Rothman

Second Class Testers
First Class Testers Routinely excluded from requirements An integral part of requirements or design meetings and design meetings Requests for tools generally Requests for tools postponed or ignored approved Per-person training same as Training? What’s training? developers Testers develop deep domain Testers are fungible expertise Testers work with developers after code Testers work with developers from is complete the beginning of a feature 6 © 2011 Johanna Rothman

First Class Testers
are Agile Testers 7
8.
In Agile, Everyone Develops
the Product 8 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
9.
Whole Team Works
Together Create the product backlog Estimate the backlog Create/verify feature acceptance criteria Know what done means Demo the product at the end of an iteration Conduct a retrospective 9 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
10.
Agile is About
Working Product “Developers” create a feature and unit test it “Testers” assess the feature and product in a variety of ways Automated tests where they will need to repeat the tests Exploratory tests “Writers” create necessary documentation Team: Have we met the acceptance criteria? 10 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
11.
Is Agile All
About Development? 11
12.
What About Test
Managers? 12
13.
We Need Both
Management and Leadership 13
14.
What Does a
Leader Look Like to You? Create teams of threes Together, in your team, write down your definition of a leader Once you look like you’re done writing, I’ll ask you to shout out your definitions 14 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
15.
What Kind of
Team? Just now, in your two’s and three’s, what kind of team were you? What kind of management did you need? 15 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
16.
Some Definitions of
Leader Guide Conductor 16 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
17.
Agile Test Managers
Are Leaders Set strategy to manage the project portfolio Remove organization obstacles Build trusting relationships with people for coaching, feedback, career development Lead hiring decisions and process Build the capacity of the organization Build communities of practice 17 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
18.
Strategically Important Work What
it is When to start it and stop it Not making those decisions creates management debt As well as chaos 18 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
19.
Management Iterations Cycles allow
you to assess strategy Cycles help you see organizational obstacles Frees the technical teams to do work 19 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
20.
Leaders Remove Organizational
Obstacles Individual reviews are an organizational obstacle for agile teams 20 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
21.
Instead of Individual
Reviews Build a trusting relationship Share the strategy Share the profits Provide cost of living raises to the team Give the team a team bonus The team can decide who gets what 21 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
22.
Trusting Relationships You tell
me: What keeps people in a job? 22 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
23.
What Does That
Mean for Functional Managers? 23 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
24.
Managers Become Champions No
micromanaging! Meet often enough, one-on-one to build a trusting relationship Allows manager to see the system 24 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
25.
Feedback and Meta-Feedback Not
evaluation or praise; feedback When you use a peer-to-peer feedback approach: Create an opening Describe behavior or results State the impact Make a request 25 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
26.
Coaching and Meta-Coaching Not
just teaching, offering options with support 26 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
27.
Career Development Where can
people go? How do they know? How can you help them? 27 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
28.
Build Organizational Capacity How
many of you know your organizational velocity now? Remove system obstacles Recognize when a team is stuck 28 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
29.
One Huge Barrier
to Increasing Capacity: Multitasking People are Not Machines! Managers can see the system to manage the project portfolio and eliminate crises and context switching 29 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
30.
Lead Hiring Effort Recognize
when you need more people Initiate the hiring Job analysis Job description Manage the phone screens Manage the interviews and interactions with HR 30 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
31.
Community of Practice What’s
missing in agile is the coaching that a test manager used to do one-on-one We need communities of practice for Testers Developers Architects Product owners Anyone else who needs to learn the functional skills 31 © 2011 Johanna Rothman
32.
Agile Creates the
Conditions for First-Class Testers and Leading Managers 32
