Build Better Products with Less Stress
You’re going through a sprint, development’s humming along, and then—boom!—all the testing piles up at the end. Testers are overwhelmed, developers are waiting, and nobody's getting the fast feedback we need to improve. Sounds familiar, right?
In this episode, we’re exploring why testing often becomes the bottleneck, especially when user stories are too big to test efficiently. But don’t worry—we’re not just pointing out problems. You’ll walk away with a clear, practical approach to endlessly integrate testing into your sprints, without burning out your QA team or stalling progress.
Whether you’re a developer trying to hand off work earlier, a QA lead tired of last-minute chaos, or a product owner aiming for faster releases—you’ll discover how smaller handoffs and smarter collaboration can make your iteration smoother.
By the end of this episode, you’ll not only rethink how you size your stories—you’ll know exactly how to turn testing from a speed bump into a smooth part of your agile rhythm.
