An Overview of Software Quality Assurance

Do we, as human beings, make mistakes? The answer to that is an overwhelming yes. There are examples of failures in quality control and decision-making that have shaken the world and resulted in huge losses to the companies involved. For example, we all remember the tragic accident with the Challenger space shuttle that exploded on launch. Was this a case of simple oversight or was it possible to have adequately tested the systems to control the threat of failure and avoid the explosion?

To get to the bottom of such incidents, we need to learn from the very people who are involved in the design and production of such systems. Mistakes are generally unavoidable and can happen at any stage of production, due to reasons such as weak or unclear requirements, hurrying to meet deadlines, or insufficient knowledge about a system.

Hands-On Test Management with Jira begins by introducing you to the basic concepts of Jira and takes you through real-world software testing processes followed by various organizations. As you progress through the chapters, the book explores and compares the three most popular Jira plugins—Zephyr, Test Management, and synapseRT. With this book, you’ll gain a practical understanding of test management processes using Jira. You’ll learn how to create and manage projects, create Jira tickets to manage customer requirements, and track Jira tickets. You’ll also understand how to develop test plans, test cases, and test suites, and create defects and requirement traceability matrices, as well as generating reports in Jira. Toward the end, you’ll understand how Jira can help the SQA teams to use the DevOps pipeline for automating execution and managing test cases. You’ll get to grips with configuring Jira with Jenkins to execute automated test cases in Selenium. By the end of this book, you’ll have gained a clear understanding of how to model and implement test management processes using Jira.

Really happy that I came across this book and bought it. I got the Kindle version. Highly recommended for BAs/Testers/Test Managers looking to take a more methodical approach to managing requirements/software testing in Jira.- Quality of this Kindle edition is outstanding.- The actual content was surprisingly practical (well, the book does have it in the title). Although the example Jira plugins in the book are now a tiny bit outdated (as of today, SynapseRT is now TestRay, Zephyr is now Zephyr Squad, Test Management is now Zephyr Scale), the overarching framework used in this book to break down the functionality across these plugins is applicable far outside of Jira. We ended up using Testomat.io instead of the plugins in the book (because they all struggle with embedding automation alongside manual testing), but thanks to the practical nature of the book and its logical framework, we were able to just jump in, write tests and link into Jira as we go.This book covers the practical side of things for requirements engineering and test management. If you've studied up on Requirements Engineering, Testing & Test Management, then this book is the next logical step - it is the guide for how to apply all that knowledge in Jira. I'm not aware of any other book this practical.Would be awesome to see this book updated with newer plugins (there's really only 4-5 in the marketplace that are worth anyone's time).If you're looking for a further step into technical end-to-end testing, check out "A Frontend Web Developer’s Guide to Testing" by Eran Kinsbruner (Senior Director at Perforce Software) and "The Way of the Web Tester" by Jonathan Rasmusson.For a further practical dive into specific tools (Puppeteer, Selenium, Cypress), check out other books from Packtpub. Well recommended.
