Re: [agile-testing] Re: Are testers equally valued on agile teams?

Hello Lisa,

I apologies for the inconvenience. Today is my first day to agile yahoo group.

I would keep in mind that i will keep agile group in loop in future discussions.

MNC means 'Multinational Corporation'. It means any enterprise which has office in more than one country.

Regards,
Savita

What IS an "MNC"?

Let's do keep this discussion civil, I don't think anyone intends to make a personal criticism.

I think the point Savita is trying to make is 'don't make a sweeping generalization' (not justifying her line/tone of questioning).

I work for one of the largest MNCs in India. I've been here nearly 8 years.. and actually moved from development into QA/Test to help out.

First, Name calling for instance is unacceptable if it makes anyone in the team uncomfortable (some friendly banter is ok). It's upto the org to lay down the law and nip it in the bud - provide a good working environment.

Second, if you dislike the environment - change it. Or Change it - law of two feet. I choose NOT to work in bad places.

So your statement could be true for *Most* not for *All*. The reasons are too varied to discuss here. IMHO If you get things done, can communicate well + add value to the development team - you should be valued by your team (irrespective of your title).

- Gishu
