Sometimes testers fail to see the importance of their role within software development projects. Although the tester’s main goal is to identify bugs within software and report them back to developers, locating bugs ultimately carries the same weight, in the process, as the way in which they are reported. Failing to report bugs quickly enough or reporting them improperly can lead to distrust between testers and developers as well as delays in releases and increases in revenue.
Join Shaun Bradshaw, Zenergy’s VP of Consulting Services, for a presentation, The Tester’s Story: Painting the Picture of Risk, on March 17, 2017 from 2:15 – 3:15 pm. Shaun’s session will explore how testers can better communicate risk effectively to maintain trust between developers and project stakeholders and guarantee that all issues that arise are expressed in ways all parties will benefit from.
Session Takeaways:
- What to do when you find a bug (newsflash: it’s not only about reporting the issue)
- How to build trust when communicating with developers
- How to demonstrate risks to project stakeholders
STPCon2017 will take place on March 14-17, in Phoenix, Arizona at the Renaissance Phoenix Downtown. For more information or to register please visit the event’s program here.
