Description
Our host Vernon Richards was joined by Huib Schoots to answer all your questions on Test Strategies.
A Test Strategy is a solution to a complex problem: How do we meet the information needs of our team & stakeholders most efficiently? A Test Strategy is “a set of ideas that guide your test design or choice of tests to be performed”. Rikard Edgren says: "Test strategy contains the ideas that guide your testing effort and deals with what to test, and how to do it. (Some people say test plan or test process, which is unfortunate…). It is in the combination of WHAT and HOW you find the real strategy. If you separate the WHAT and the HOW, it becomes general and quite useless." Developing a Test Strategy is hard and many testers struggle with it. Watch this AMA recording to find out what the community wanted to know about test strategies.
