I am visiting my offshore team for the first time, ant tips on how to make the most of the trip?

 

We have an offshore team ratio 65-35. I have recently been appointed Head of the testing department and I am visiting the offshore team. Do you have any tips on what types of activities/tasks I can do with my team to get the most from this visit.

 

Thanks!

when is it acceptable to reference the results of another test script to validate the current test?
By Lisa Breedlove - April 19, 20171 Answer

can you validate a test case at the device level by pointing to the results of a test case at the functional or unit level? (Can a Uit test be used for validation of a Device level test?  Can a Unit test be used to validate an Integration level test?)

Can you validate a test case by pointing to another test case at the same level? (i.e., can one DFS test be used to validate another DFS test?, can one Unit test be used to validate another Unit test?)

Looking for a tool that checks through code and generates list of aspects that can be tested
By Istvan Fay - April 5, 20173 Answers

Hi!

I am looking for a tool that would go through a piece of code and would generate a list of all aspects that could / should be tested:

  • the interesting values of a variable: especially the values where decisions are based upon
  • all the possible combination at logic brenches: the combinations that lead the execution of the code to a specific path

That are two kinds of code that are actual at the moment:

  • C code
  • model-based development

Thanks for  your ideas and support!

Graphical flow of Client requirements
By Farhan Sabir - January 31, 20173 Answers

Hi, 

I am curenlty working in an agile environment as a manual tester and having a hard time in explaining the user stories to the developers so they can implement it properly. Althought the user stories are self explained but still they come to me and ask many questions. I don't have enough time to explain and then test it.

Previously in waterfall we used to make a requirement doc. and then get it approved from client, only after that we start working on them but i am not sure about agile as documents are not made in this process. What porcess should we follow here? I was thinking of a data flow diagram or something else? What can be done to improve it?

Need a very good advise in this matter, Thanks.
