You could run the program and click around manually—but that quickly becomes tedious, unreliable, and error-prone, especially as your codebase grows. That’s where unit testing comes in. Unit testing lets you verify that individual pieces of your code—like functions or methods—behave exactly the way you expect.

New features ship weekly. Designs change overnight. Releases go out daily. But speed comes with risk, and when your UI is broken, users don’t care why. They just leave. That’s where automated UI testing comes in. Done right, it protects the user experience without slowing you down. Done wrong, it becomes flaky, expensive, and hard to maintain.

Gathering requirements in an Agile environment can feel like a balancing act, especially if you're operating in a heavily regulated industry. While the collaborative and iterative nature of an Agile approach facilitates productive and efficient workflows, it can make gathering and tracking requirements difficult. In the rush to complete a sprint, it’s easy to lose sight of user stories and the corresponding acceptance criteria. Three reasons Agile teams struggle with requirements gathering include.
