As an agile tester, you know the importance of the daily standup meeting to the Agile process. But did you know there are things that testers should and shouldn’t say? For example, don’t say:
“Yesterday I tested a story. Today I’m going to test another story. No impediments.”
Per Scrum inventor Jeff Sutherland, daily standups should not be “I did this . . . ,” “I’ll do that. . . .” Instead, share things that affect others with an emphasis on impediments. The team should leave the meeting with a sense of energy and urgency to rally around the solutions of the day. When the meeting ends, the team should be saying, “Let’s go do this!”.
Just in case you need some inspiration, this post contains nine different things tests should say at scrum meetings.
