I’m not so sure, planning and executing tests during integration sounds more fitting.

I think the tester will mainly help with executing unit tests.

I feel like supporting the customer in acceptance testing is where the tester would shine, especially since they have no coding experience.

Honestly, I’m a bit confused. I thought unit tests were mainly for developers, but maybe the tester could help with acceptance testing instead?

I remember a practice question where we discussed the role of testers in XP, and I feel like executing unit tests might be a good option too.

I think the tester would likely contribute most during the integration test phase, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right choice.

Based on the XP approach, I think the tester would be most useful in supporting the customer with acceptance testing. That's a key part of the XP process, and the tester's testing experience could be really helpful there.

I'd say the tester is most likely to contribute to planning and executing integration tests to catch interface issues. That's where their testing expertise can be really valuable, even without coding skills.

I'm not sure about this one. The tester might be able to contribute to developing unit tests, even without coding experience, by providing input on test cases and scenarios. But the integration and acceptance testing options also seem plausible.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. Since the tester doesn't have any coding experience, I'd guess they'd be most useful in the integration testing and acceptance testing phases, where they can focus on detecting interface defects and supporting the customer.

The key here is to make sure the solutions are compatible between the dev and production instances. I'd probably go with option D and just import the latest version to production to be safe.

As a tester without coding experience, C is the only logical choice. Wouldn't want them debugging unit tests, that's for sure!

Definitely C. Trying to have a non-coder do unit tests would be a disaster. Integration testing is where they can really add value.

C is the obvious choice here. The tester should focus on integration testing, not unit testing, since they don't have coding experience.
