Quote
from Great Testing Experts:
"Testers
don't complain; they offer evidence.
Testers don't like to break things;
they like to dispel the illusion
that things work"
- Cem Kaner
*****************************************************
How
do the Experts Like Test Analysts
handle the Software Defects?
ISTQB advanced certified experts
like “Test Analyst”
as well as “Technical Test
Analyst” remain interested
in precisely recording issues
detected in their areas of operations.
A “Test Analyst”
tries to approach the problem
from the user's perspective e.g.
# What would this mean to the
user?
# What would he do when he encounters
this situation?
A “Technical Test
Analyst” concentrates more
on the technical aspects of the
problem e.g.
# Why did it occur?
# On what platforms is it visible?
# Is it affected by environmental
factors?
The above approach to software
problems directly corresponds
to the quality characteristics
the tester is testing. If the
problem is a performance issue
and likely within the purview
of the “Technical Test Analyst”,
investigation of the problem will
be different than that conducted
by a “Test Analyst”
for a usability issue.
How the
areas of “Test Managers”
overlap with that of Test Analysts?
The defect reports come from
the “Test Analyst”
or the “Technical Test Analyst”
who is performing the testing.
