Books on Agile Testing
Here are some good books on Agile Testing:
| Agile Testing
A practical guide for testers and agile teams Lisa Crispin, Janet Gregory |
This is a recent book and is a comprehensive and insightful view into all aspects of testing on agile teams. Highly recommended. |
| Bridging the Communication Gap
Specification by example and agile acceptance testing Gojko Adzic |
Gojko provides a solid treatment of using examples to drive specification, understanding and development of user stories. A focus is on agile acceptance testing through executable specifications of concrete examples. |
| xUnit Test Patterns
Refactoring test code Gerard Meszaros |
A thorough book covering everything you need to know about writing tests for the xUnit tools. Highly recommended for any developer using xUnit. |
| Fit for Developing Software
Framework for Integrated Tests Rick Mugridge, Ward Cunningham |
This book provides a great introduction and all you need to know to get up and going with Fit. Fit is a tool for writing “business facing” or acceptance tests. |

I’ve found “TDD By Example” (Beck) to be a very readable, short, useful and inspiring introduction not only to the practice of coding test-first, but also to the best ways of writing tests.
I’d recommend anyone read that book first before delving into xUnit testing patterns (which is a more thorough library of testing do’s and don’t’s).
