Quality Planning / Testing requirements
1 min readNov 13, 2024
I am on a research mission to find out content that covers quality planning/testing requirements. I suppose they are slightly different things, so I’ll see what I can find and break it out into sections.
I will edit and update this blog post as I find more.
What you look for
- Use a Mnemonic: “The mnemonic I use for what to look for is the four C’s and one T: completeness, clearness, correctness, consistency, and testability.” — See this blog post by Evgeny Tkachenko on this blog.
- Understand what the difference is between explicit and implicit requirements. See this blog post by Nicola Lingren Step by step guide: Testing without requirements little requirements — Nicola Lindgren or listen to the Quality Sense Podcast with Nicola Quality Sense Podcast: Nicola Lindgren — Implicit requirements
- Insufficient requirements — this is a resting result and a project risk. See Michael Bolton’s post here Very Short Blog Posts (9): “Insufficient Requirements” — DevelopSense
- Does it make sense? A previous blog from myself: Requirements review is more than can we test this? | by Melissa Fisher | Medium
- “The gathered requirements are scrutinized to discover any ambiguities, inconsistencies, or deficiencies affecting the testing process.” Quote from Test sigma’s blog post: Requirement Based Testing: Everything You Need To Know
