Microsoft Testing Tour - Quality Assurance and Collaboration

•

0 likes•857 views

QA is near the end of the process chain, so one of the best things they can do to be successful is improve their efficiency and collaborate better with the development team. In this session, we want to answer all of these questions: What if you could draft and select test cases early in the project and ensure you have test coverage by assigning them to requirements? What if the bugs you discover could automatically include data about the underlying behavior of the application and the machine it’s running on? Are you getting enough information about a release to know what to test? Which new features have been implemented? Which haven’t? Which bugs are supposedly resolved? We’ll discuss how to take advantage of the opportunities for improving collaboration between testers and developers.

Continuous Delivery without Significant Test Automation

Maaret Pyhäjärvi

All organisations aspiring agile don’t have a significant level of automated checks available. Deciding to start adding automation on top of legacy code is a long road to travel and while on route, releases will rely on more manual testing. Meanwhile, automating builds to a single click deploy already enables delivering. This talk tells a story of going into mindset of continuous delivery of continuous releases to production without the level of test automation often seen as a key practice. You will learn from the changes we went through moving from monthly (scrum) to continuous (kanban) releases as we started delivering value in production in small incremental changes. The talk will help you see one route to a happy agile team with satisfied customers, where the recipe is built more around collaboration and smart exploratory testing than test automation to deliver a steady stream value.

Shift_Left

Sachin Ohal

The document discusses shifting testing left in the development process. It recommends setting up real-time test and operations dashboards to monitor performance and functionality across development, testing, and production environments. Maximizing project efficiency requires implementing shifts to the left both technologically and through processes that integrate agile, kanban, and devops frameworks while identifying critical business processes and transactions early.

Observability Shivagami Gugan

Shivagami Gugan

The document discusses the importance of observability in complex distributed systems. It makes three key points: 1. Performance impacts business outcomes, so it is important to monitor performance metrics like page load times and how improvements can increase conversions. 2. As systems become more distributed and complex, there is a need for "integrated visibility" to understand how workloads are being handled by resources across the system. 3. Instrumenting code with libraries allows for gathering more context about transactions and dependencies compared to using external agents, but both approaches can be used together to gain better insights.

'Quality Engineering: Build It Right The First Time' by Allan Woodcock, Shoba...

TEST Huddle

It's no secret, that Quality Assurance (QA) plays a very vital role in assuring customer experience. Then, why wait till the end of the development phase to validate the business requirements? Also, the cost of defect multiplies in the later stages of the development lifecycle. Quality Engineering (QE) is an innovative approach which focusses on upstream assurance of software through early involvement of QA in the lifecycle. Techniques like architecture validation, design validation, quality profiling and static testing are defining the QE landscape. Industry leading tools and point solutions also enable effective and efficient QE approach for quality assurance teams. As the IT focus moves to engineering quality with a lower Cost of Quality (CoQ), QE will play a vital role in achieving the end business objectives. Key Takeaways - Business drivers requiring the paradigm shift of Building it Right the First Time - Tools, techniques and methodologies for embracing Quality Engineering - Predictive test design through analytics powered Quality Intelligence - Importance of QE in the sphere of Agile, Continuous Integration and DevOps environment
