Track: Management Perspectives for Testers
The challenges facing a lead or manager of a newly created testing team or QA department can be intimidating, regardless of your previous experience. You will need to build a successful team and processes that can be well integrated with the processes of existing groups in the organization, all while continuing to meet customer commitments. Your mind will be full of many questions, the most important of which may be, “Where do I begin?” In this session, the presenter will examine the approaches used to address this challenge. The practical implications of different approaches will be discussed, as well as analysis of what could have been done differently in light of issues encountered and lessons learned along the way.
