Common issues with test management and process improvement include:
Inadequate test plan or lack of updates
The test plan should be complete, detailed and accurate at the beginning of the project, but may be found missing or need to be updated during the course of practice. If the test plan is incomplete or not updated in time, it may lead to test failure or project delay.
lack of transparency and communication
Test management and process improvement require collaboration and transparency between teams. Inadequate or transparent communication between teams can lead to failed tests, delayed bug resolution, or lower-than-expected outcomes.
Lack of professional knowledge and skills
Test management and process improvement require specialized knowledge and skills. If team members lack the necessary skills or knowledge, it can lead to distortion of the testing process and inaccurate results.
WRONG TESTING STRATEGIES AND APPROACHES
Testing strategies and methods should be adapted to the needs and characteristics of the project. If the testing strategy and method are not correct, it will lead to invalidation and loopholes of test cases.
Lack of testing tools and technical support
Test management and process improvement require technical support and appropriate testing tools. If the team lacks the necessary tools and technical support, it may lead to increased test error rates and distorted test results.
Lack of Lean Thinking and Continuous Improvement
Test management and process improvement require Lean thinking and a sense of continuous improvement. A lack of continuous improvement awareness and a Lean mindset on the team can lead to duplication of errors and low-quality results.
