Research – QA process

Hey guys, I sent a form with some questions about the QA process in different corporations and I will post the result here, it’s interesting to know how the majority is working nowadays 🙂

• Which moment do you create your scenarios (validation tests) ?

• 80% – Create after “In conversation” when the ticket is Ready for development 
• 20% – Create when the ticket is in development
• 0% – Create when the ticket is Ready for QA

 

 

 

 

 

 

• As a tester have you been involved in meetings about business rules of a ticket or just the PO ?

• 20% – Just the PO is involved and I need to read the tickets to understand the business rules
• 60% – I take part with devs and after we point the ticket
• 20% – I take part since the ticket’s creation with the PO

 

 

 

 

• Do you have a brief explanation or demo about what the ticket is about ?

• 0% – I have a demo before test the ticket
• 0% – PO explains to me what the ticket is about
• 20% – Dev explains to me what the ticket is about
• 60% – I have a meeting in the beginning of the sprint to know what the ticket is about
• 20% – PO and dev explain to me the ticket

 

 

 

 

 

• When you do the regression tests, do you test the integration between the platforms ?

• 40% – I test the integration between the related platforms
• 0% – Other
• 60% – I test just the platform which will be released

 

 

 

 

• Have you ever performed the regression tests before the tickets be resolved ?

• 60% – Yes
• 40% – No

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Do you have a staging environment to test each single ticket ?

• 40% – No
• 60% – Yes

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Do you have an UAT environment to test the group of tickets of each release ?

• 40% – Yes
• 60% – No

 

 

 

 

 

 

• When you have tickets to be tested together…

• 60% – You are notified by the developer
• 0% – Other
• 40% – It’s written on the ticket to be tested together with another(s) ticket(s)
