This webinar is the first in a 3 part series series on Taking Requirements to the Next Level Series by Solutions Cube.  Although this module is a part of the series – each module in the series can be taken individually.

User acceptance test criteria provides a project team with valuable insight as to how well the project solution meets the expectations of the business stakeholders. Unfortunately for many project efforts, this valuable information is created too late in the projects lifecycle to uncover gaps in the business requirements ultimately resulting in the project solution never being built.

Attend this 1 hour webinar to learn why the creation of User Acceptance Test Objectives prior to finalizing business requirements will help uncover requirement gaps as well as end product expectations that may actually be out of scope for the project.

In this 1 hour in-depth webinar participants learn:

• Utilizing transaction Inputs and Outputs to clarify the types of processing that will be performed once the project solution is implemented
• Describing acceptance test objectives and mapping these to business requirements to drive out clarity and completeness of currently documented need statements
• Creating the foundation for producing in scope detail test plans and test scripts to be executed during the later testing phases of the project

Session Information:  Solutions Cube Group’s webinars are presented by experienced staff members and partners who have over 30 years of experience managing projects and developing and running facilitated project meetings and delivering project management training courses.

Shift left. Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD). Continuous deployment. DevOps. What is all this stuff and what does it mean for you as the tester?

In this keynote, Rex Black will explain these concepts and their test implications. He will then describe the emerging role of the SDET (Software Development Engineering in Test, also called SET) and what SDETs do.

Yes, being an SDET is about test automation, but it’s about a lot more than that, and Rex will give you some examples of things you can expect to do as an SDET in a shift left world over the coming decade.

Don’t worry. Life as a tester in the SDET reality is gonna be fun and exciting, and Rex will discuss these points and more, helping you be more effective in Agile projects.
