I assume you don't mean unit tests, which should never be a replacement for full regression testing.
Ya since that is essentially a deal breaker, I wonder why all the scrum consultants fail to mention that.
Automated full regression is very expensive to develop and maintain. I think a lot of people who implement scrum don't realize that they are sacrificing significant levels of testing when they implement it without a testing automation team.
To me, that's just another reason to ditch scrum.
- nradov 8y agoI mean all tests — unit, functional, performance, everything — necessary to verify that a particular product build meets your customer's quality standards. Automated full regression testing is far cheaper than manual testing. If it seems too expensive then you're probably doing it wrong or failing to account for full lifecycle costs. This is absolutely not a reason to ditch Scrum. In fact Scrum is conducive to good quality practices.
