Mind Maps as Agile Test Plans and More! - Kiruthika Ganesan image
Talk Description
Are you interested in creating Test plans for your epics, features, user stories? Are you looking for ideas to link them all together, make some sense to get a big picture and also have the capability to drill down to find details when needed? If yes, then this talk might be useful to you.

We need something that is concise and precise, to help us understand the main customer journeys and offer collaboration ideas between various stakeholders. Test planning through mind maps is a way to cater for all these and much more!
What you’ll learn

By the end of this talk, you'll be able to:

  • The transformation of Agile Test plans and how they can be lightweight
  • Practical example of the various levels of test plans, how to link them together and get a living documentation out of them
  • Some limitations to the aware of and how to navigate through them
