Abstract: Agile testing is a fast-paced testing method that adheres to the principles outlined in the Agile Manifesto. This research paper explores the adoption of Agile testing methodologies in the context of software houses in Pakistan. The study focuses on identifying the prevalent Agile testing techniques preferred by Software Quality Assurance (SQA) teams and the factors influencing their selection. A survey was conducted to gather insights from professionals in the industry, including SQA experts, developers, and project managers. The findings provided valuable information on the most widely used Agile testing methodologies and the reasons behind their popularity. The core objective of this research is to provide the knowledge related to implemented methodologies, reasons behind the selection of these methodologies, factors that influence the selection of testing tools and techniques, satisfaction level of their selected tools, and how effective their selected tools or techniques are in terms of reducing the number of bugs. The study's contribution lies in offering guidance to software houses in Pakistan by facilitating the adoption of effective Agile testing techniques. The research concludes with recommendations for improving testing practices and enhancing the overall quality of software products in the industry.
