Test Management: A Risk-Based Approach with Rex Black & Bob Carpenter

In this workshop, you will learn how to:
• Understand general and specific risk types
• Analyze, prioritize, and document quality risks
• Understand regression risks and regression risk mitigation strategies
• Identify and manage project risks that affect testing
• Report test results in terms of residual risks
• Understand alternative ways of documenting and assessing quality risks

Learn how to identify risk items and assess their level of risk, explore ways to monitor risk during test execution and discover how project risks can affect testing. Hear real-world examples and case studies, including a special case study demonstrating how the techniques described in this workshop were successfully applied by RBCS and CA, Inc. for one of CA's flagship, mission-critical products. The workshop will conclude with a realistic, hands-on exercise. Laptops are recommended for full benefit.
