Planned manual testing

Over the years, manual testing has evolved together with the software development process into a more agile approach. With Azure DevOps, manual testing is integrated into the different agile processes that are supported and can be configured in Azure DevOps.

Important note

The different agile processes that are supported and integrated in Azure DevOps are covered in more detail in Chapter 2, Managing Projects with Azure DevOps Boards.

Software development teams can begin manual testing right from the Kanban board from Azure Boards. From the board, you can monitor the status of the tests directly from the cards. This way, all team members can get an overview of what tests are connected to the work items and stories. From there the team can also see what the status is of the different tests.

In the following image, you can see the tests and statuses that are displayed on the board:
