Software Testing approach and strategy:

When the new project get assigned and you are the owner of the module, the approach first start with the understanding of the module and its functionality.

  1. Getting the complete exposure of the functionality in the module
  2. Setting up the environment and making sure that there is no change in the testing environment as far as the testing is going on.
  3. Defining and seting up the processes like

a. the dependencies on other teams

b. the work flow

  1. Reviewing of test cases and activities done by testing team every day
  2. We also need to take the back up of our data for every days work.
  3. During the testing phase we also have to make sure that we have the maximum coverage of feature.
  4. If we are filing any adhoc bug we have to make sure that we have added its test case too.
  5. Addition of test with every product fix or every new patch is must.
