The QA Analyst is working on the following tasks on the project:
Functional testing based on user stories
Regression testing based on group of user stories
Test management (typically in X-Ray)
Helping customer with UAT (tips for less experienced customers)
Helping customer with test management (demo of X-Ray)
Functional demos for customer
Basic performance testing (optional, expected for large project, support from Performance team can be needed for complex scenarios)
Test automation for supporting development (optional, based on allocation)
Review of Acceptance Criteria
Expected allocation:
Example of QA allocation for 5 FS project:
General rules and expectations:
QA allocation should be during the whole project - from Kick off to UAT, not just during Feature Sprints
There should be growing allocation during Feature Sprint
QA allocation should correspond to number of CEs on the project
Lower allocation for QA will mean less tasks will be done on the project by QA Analyst and tasks for QA should be prioritized
