Abstract
This experience report describes the challenges and initial steps taken to move a large development team from traditional waterfall test phases to agile test methods. In late 2007, our development team started the transition to incorporate agile practices of user stories, daily scrums and time-boxed iterations. This paper focuses on the changes in test strategies necessary to support agile.
