Predict - Check
• Practice anticipating what will happen
• Define your tests
• Check – running tests or collaborate with customers and programmers before* coding
• Be prepared to change your tests if your predictions are wrong
• Learn by reviewing – what questions could you have asked first.

Let’s talk testing early
It’s not just about code !!!
– Test assumptions
– Uncover hidden assumptions
The goal:
– Shared common understanding of the story
– Preventing defects (eliminate waste)
