Software Testing Fit: Finding the right approach for your system

Description: We learn from feedback; Feedback comes from tests. Software Testing is a core practice of an agile team to accelerate the feedback cycle. But how do you know what to test? What tests are valuable for you and your team? Test too little, the system becomes tangled and unpredictable. Test too much, effort is wasted and customers are left wanting. Both extremes leave your system brittle and hard to change.

Let's talk about software testing in context of addressing specific problems. We'll look at the depths and breadths of testing and explore the solutions and problems created.
