Testing Roles and Responsibilities – Quality Assurance – Testing Software (Part 2)

In this article we’ll see which could be the most relevant testing roles and  the responsibilities . First we should differentiate between QA and Testing

• QA Roles : Try to prevent bugs appearing  doing improvement in the development process through process improvements  also verifying that it is possible to make the software work under a given set of conditions
  • QA Lead
• Testing Roles : Main task is search bugs before final user find them and testing roles are constantly thinking of things that have not been tried and find parts of the software that may be weak
  • Test  Lead Analyst: 
  • Test Engineer
    1. Manual Test Engineer
    2. Automated Test Engineer

     2. Creating artefacts for continuous inspection of code quality to perform automatic reviews with analysis of code to prevent bugs and code smells.
     3. Co-ordinate Testing Roles to  planning the entire testing process
  2. QA Engineer
     Help to the QA Lead to implement different way to improve the development process
• Testing  Roles 
  
  1. Test Lead: 
     
     1. Implementing and planning the test strategy and workflow
     2. Design different Test Plans
     3. Arranging walk-through for test design and procedure
     4. Co-Ordinate Test Engineers
     5. Review the organisation of the test cases and try to reuse scenarios
  2. Manual Test Engineer:
     • Create Test Cases
     • Execute Manual Test Cases
     • Report Defects
  3. Automated Test Engineer
