Maximizing Effectiveness of Limited Testing Resources and Time
1-Day Intensive Seminar Workshop
Your testing process is the way testing is done in your organization
and involves much more than merely procedures and paperwork,
such as the people and organizational issues essential for support
and success. This interactive course describes key elements
a testing process needs in order to be effective and efficient
and explains how Proactive Testing™ can go well beyond
traditional reactive testing to deliver higher quality systems
quicker and cheaper. Managing the testing process involves defining,
monitoring, and actively guiding/adjusting how individual testing
projects plan, design, organize, direct, and control testing
of specific systems under test (SUT). Techniques are shown to
identify testing and necessary supportive tasks; estimate required
time, effort, and resources; keep testing on track; and monitor
and evaluate the testing process itself. Exercises enhance learning
by allowing participants to practice techniques.
Participants
will learn:
* REAL vs. Presumed Process identification
and elements a testing process should include.
* Managing the testing process vs. managing individual
testing projects.
* A structured Proactive Testing? process that
yields better software and also cuts development
time.
* Effective and efficient no-busywork methods
for planning, designing, and organizing tests.
* Cross-project components, roles, and tasks
to provide adequate testing infrastructure environment.
* Issues and techniques to gain support within
the organization for suitable testing.
* Measures to monitor both testing of particular
software and overall test process effectiveness.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: This course has been designed
for test, system, and project managers, as well as testers,
analysts, and others who plan, oversee, and/or carry out testing
of systems and software.
