This document summarizes the agenda and discussion at an Agile Testing meetup group. It introduces the purpose of the group as a place for testers to share experiences and learn new skills in Agile Testing. Key topics discussed include the benefits of testing earlier in the development cycle using automated tools. A demonstration was given of a keyword driven web testing solution using WebDriver and FitNesse. Attendees then shared challenges with testing in Agile and ideas for future meetup activities.
