A gile and QA  Agile is a methodology that is being widely used to develop a software these days.  For a QA professional, an agile approach can be very thwarting, as they are used to validate a finished product to verify, but in agile methodology they have to validate an ever changing product.  It means that the use of technology and automation are much more difficult and it requires a newer methodology to testing.  With the emergence of Test Driven Development**, some suggest the future of QA is shrouded in mist and now Test Driven Development (TDD) is the future of testing. But, what is most important, is that QA is directly involved in the agile scrimmages all the way through to be an integral part of the team designing the tests, at the same time as the necessities and solutions advance.
