Agile testing involves all members of a cross-functional agile team, with special expertise contributed by testers, to ensure delivering the business value desired by the customer at frequent intervals, working at a sustainable pace.
Testing and coding are done incrementally and interactively, building up each feature until it provides enough value to release to production.
In contrast with these traditional methodologies, Agile testing focuses on repairing faults immediately, rather than waiting for the end of the project.
When testing occurs at the tail end of a project, it can sometimes be sacrificed in terms of duration and quality to meet critical schedules and budget restrictions.
