Extreme Programming (XP) is one of several lightweight software development methodologies. It involves extremely short incremental release cycles, early and frequent testing, heavy use of design refactoring, and pair programming. In this chapter, we propose a lightweight approach to ordering test cases to maximize the amount of testing that can be conducted early in the development process. We argue that our approach is efficient and easy to apply with tool support, and does not differ significantly from typical XP testing process models.
