Hello. I wanted to ask a question about a Tech Lead certification issue. There was a question about when test cases should start being written, basically before, during or after the development of the user story. There was also the option from the first user story. Does anyone know the answer? Or do you know of any material preferably on Outsystems that talks about test cases? Thanks.
Hello Monique Gomes RIBEIRO, Regarding your question, a similar one was already posted and answered in this thread by one of the most experienced people you can find, @Daniël Kuhlmann:
Anyway, on the Tech Lead Guide Path, on this video, you can find the answer to your question:
Best regards,Ana
Ana, you are absolutely correct.
Everyone got it right. Thank you all.
But this video has exactly the answer.
I believe the answers are in the Outsystems material, but sometimes I can't find them lol
Hi,
In Agile world Writing the test cases is parallel to the development of the particular task. Developers and QA will clearly understand the requirements and clarify if any doubts within the team or with BA. Once got clear understanding on the particular task, developers will start developing it and QA team will start writing the test cases for the same.
so answer is during the development of the user story you can start preparing the test cases.
Thanks

I'm preparing for the exam also so I'll give my 2 cents as well.
Let's break it down. I guess not before, because during the iteration planning is decided which stories will be in the next sprint. This can lead to some stories not even being in the project. That also rules out from the first user story.
Not after because acceptance is being done in the current iteration or the next, if not all stories are accepted. If a story is developed it must be accepted as soon as possible. If test cases still have to be written, time's lost.
So I agree with Chandra, during development.
Good luck!
