Let's explore together !

🎳 Gamify your Testing and Agile Activities

The gamification in learning aims to motivate collaborators to learn and experiement new things by using different game elements in their environments such us game cards or other form of interactions

I’m passionate about using gamification in learning since 2018, it was also the reason how I discovered the Ministry of Testing few years ago and how I created my testing community for that I wanted to create a page in my blog to describe different games that I’ve tried the last couple of years related to Agile and Testing !

Hope you will enjoy the list of games and I also created some rackets 🎾 to explain how I used it every game.
