Scenario-Based Development and Testing Using Rommana ALM - Doing it Right the First Time Bug reporting, bug fixing, and re-testing is a very time consuming and costly cycle that we all love to shorten. It is even worth when bugs are reported by customers after release. Not only because of the interruption it causes to operation and the frustration that it causes to users. Not only because of the time the customer has to wait until the problem is fixed, retested and released as, in many cases, they might have to wait until the next release. It is mostly because of the disappointment and the loss of confidence caused by the appearance of new bugs where things worked before and are no longer working – regression problems, sounds familiar? I am sure it does. If you have been in software development for a number of years, I am sure you have witnessed the impact of rework on team productivity. And, if you have been in a management position for a while, you probably also have felt the frustration of customers. Well, I very much have been there. Have you ever though what type of bug reports you get from customers and why we get them? Getting answers to these two simple questions is the secret of how to minimize or even prevent those bug reports from coming back to your team. In fact, it is also the secret of defect prevention. I am really talking about the secret of Doing it Right the First Time; Something software teams have struggled with for many years. Your team might have used things like scenarios or acceptance criteria. They might have used agile, TDD, BDD, continuous delivery, continuous testing, and other seemingly promising methods. Has any of these helped your team achieve the ultimate goal of Doing it Right the First Time or even minimize the number expensive bug reports? The Scenario-Based development and testing process as implemented in Rommana ALM has proven to reduce the number of bug reports by more than 70% and has shown a major increase in requirement coverage and code coverage. This webinar will shed the light on this process and show how you can get your team, agile or not, to start using it.
