Test Sub-processes Strategy

Sub-process Strategy Details:

Definition: Test Sub-processes refer to the individual phases of testing—test design, environment setup, test execution, and incident reporting.

Entry and Exit Criteria:
  - Each testing phase will have clearly defined entry and exit criteria based on test readiness and defect density.
Test Completion Criteria:
  - Testing is considered complete when all critical and high-priority defects are resolved and regression tests pass.
Test Documentation and Reporting:
  - Detailed test execution reports will be prepared at the end of each sprint, highlighting defect trends, test coverage, and other key performance indicators.
Degree of Independence:
  - A dedicated testing team will operate independently from development, collaborating as needed for integrated testing.
Test Design Techniques:
  - Techniques include equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, and exploratory testing.
Test Environment:
  - Multiple environments (development, staging, and production-like) will be maintained.
Metrics:
  - Metrics such as test case pass rate, defect density, and test coverage will be continuously monitored.
Additional Metrics:
  - Product Metrics: Number of defects by severity, defect density.
  - Process Metrics: Defect containment efficiency, overall test coverage (manual and automated), automation coverage, and defect reopen rate.
Retesting and Regression Testing:
  - Automated regression suites will run after each sprint to ensure no new defects are introduced.
