FAQPage Schema

What is holistic testing and how do PACTS principles apply to test strategy?▼

Holistic testing applies PACTS principles—Proactive, Autonomous, Collaborative, Targeted, and Structured—to design comprehensive test strategies. It ensures quality is built into team practices across Classical, AI-assisted, Agent-based, or Agentic Systems.

How do I design a test strategy for agentic systems?▼

To design a test strategy for agentic systems, apply PACTS principles and identify whether your focus is Technology-facing or Business-facing. The approach then selects appropriate agents based on the chosen testing quadrant and PACTS dimension.

Can I use this holistic testing approach for AI-assisted systems?▼

Yes, this holistic testing approach supports AI-assisted systems. It designs targeted test strategies using PACTS principles, implementing feedback loops that catch issues in minutes and measuring outcomes like bug escape rate and release confidence.

Do I need quality engineering knowledge to implement a PACTS test strategy?▼

Yes, implementing a PACTS test strategy requires foundational knowledge of quality engineering practices and agent coordination. This prerequisite ensures you can effectively design proactive, autonomous, and structured testing workflows.

What's the best way to measure outcomes in a holistic test strategy?▼

The best way to measure outcomes in a holistic test strategy is by tracking bug escape rate and release confidence. This approach implements structured feedback loops to catch issues quickly and validate the effectiveness of your PACTS-driven testing.

When should I use agent coordination in my test strategy?▼

You should use agent coordination in your test strategy when designing holistic tests for Agent-based or Agentic Systems. The approach selects appropriate agents based on your specific PACTS dimension and whether the quadrant is Technology-facing or Business-facing.
