How to eliminate or minimize false negative automated testing? image
Thanks for posting, Samarth. Congrats on building what sounds like a helpful framework. Out of interest, what's the difference between application feature testing and application stability testing? Would application stability testing include things like trying to force a crash to see how it behaves? I guess, kind of under the wide performance testing bracket.

Discussion - What is Quality? image
Great point on metrics from Charlotte: "How did bugs have people raised? How many test cases they've written? That doesn't give a metric of quality. You could write 100 test cases but they could all be testing pretty much the same thing. Or you could have very small bugs and fix them all first time and have a really good metric. But actually it doesn't reflect that there's a very good quality product. It just reflects the fact that you've raised lots of things."
