Hey, at least the tester won't be writing code! That's a relief for the developers. Option D sounds like a great way to keep the tester busy and out of trouble.

I'd have to disagree with option B. Executing unit tests is just a small part of the tester's role. Option C is the clear choice here - the tester can really shine during the integration testing phase.

Option B is the way to go! Let the tester execute the unit tests while the developers focus on writing them. It's a win-win situation.

Hmm, I'm not sure the tester would be able to contribute much to unit test development without coding experience. Option D seems like a good fit, where the tester can support the customer in acceptance testing.

I agree, but supporting the customer in acceptance testing might be a better fit for them.

I think the tester could still help with developing unit tests.

I believe the tester would also contribute to planning and executing tests during the integration test phase to detect interface defects, as they have a unique perspective on potential issues.

In an XP team with an inexperienced tester, I think option C would be the best fit. The tester could focus on planning and executing integration tests to catch interface defects, which is a critical role.

I agree with Shawna, since the tester's role is to ensure the quality of the code through testing.
