Software development process is a collaborative effort to fulfil multidimensional product requirements. The development methodology plays an important role to meet the expectations of all the stakeholders especially the client. So, agile teams are constituted having experts level of knowledge and versatility in software development. The team tests the software in errands and takes regular feedback to develop a final product. For this, researchers have suggested numerous approaches in their research works. This paper is a literature review of those earlier research works suggesting different approaches of software development using agile testing method to increase efficacy of software as compared to traditional methods. The purpose is to list the objectives considered which help in deciding the development approach to be undertaken. It brings forth the related agile attributes which influence the software development task in terms of quality, scope, timeliness and cost effectiveness. Further, a framework has been presented for use by any of the stakeholders involved in agile software development methodology.
