3 Amigos Safeguarding Quality and Peace of Mind

The talk shares the experience of one of Yandex's teams on how the implementation of the 30-minute “3 Amigos” practice helps refine project requirements, improve metrics, and enhance the emotional well-being of participants.

I will discuss how we adopted the “3 Amigos” practice for our projects and the challenges we encountered during implementation. I'll explain how it helped us develop a unified understanding of how a feature will work from three perspectives—business, development, and testing. Furthermore, I will also share the best practices we’ve developed, and how this has impacted our metrics, overall project quality, and the emotional state of QA in particular.
