Editor's Notes
- #2 \n
- #3 1. Introductions : About Me\n[Thanks to Jeff, Nick, Deborah]\na. Software Tester for 12 years\nb. Roles: Tester, Manager, Engineer, and Team Leader\nc. Currently: Build and Deployment Coordinator\n
- #4 \n
- #5 2. Why do we need Testers/Testing? (QA)\na. They provide a Check and Balance to ensure good quality software\nb. They are trained to find & identify problems – even to clarify requirements or highlight vague requirements that might cause issues during development\nc. They can provide an interface between the IT developers, the BA’s, and the business customers / users\nd. Gatekeeper to the production environment\ne. They protect the users from a bad experience\n
- #6 They have a goal to find defects in the code / application\nThey don’t just test the ‘happy path’\nThey ensure major scenarios are covered\nThey are usually more systematic than the users\nThey make sure bugs are found by IT before the code goes to UAT or Production\nThey are part of the team: make sure you make the most of their skills\nThey bake quaility into the application via the process, just not after the fact\nThey fight for the USER! /TRON reference\n\nOur job is tell you ( Mr. developer) your baby is ugly! (say it with a smile, otherwise they will pout, I'm not kidding!)\n\nYour code is buggy and your mom dresses you funny.\nDoes your mother know what kind of code you write?\nthanks!\n\n
- #7 Testing Process (abbreviated)\na. Test Planning: good test plans, testing outlines\nb. Test Execution: good test cases, user stories\nc. Test Reporting: defects and issues; documentation and steps; screen captures\nd.
