The Test Management Activities

• Testing starts with requirements.
• Requirements management is the process of
  gathering, organizing and tracking requirements
  documents throughout the project
• Focus testing efforts
• Allows testing teams to prioritize testing based
  on requirements/business priority/risk

• Test plans contain test designs, test
• Steps, and other test attributes
• Who must test what and how
• Set up the environment
• Define test steps procedures
• Develop test design
• Define test data
• Design test architecture
• Link test plans to requirements

• Execution of manual and automated tests
• Unit tests, Functional Regression tests, and
  Load Performance tests
• Provides increased test coverage
• Eliminates human error and provides consistency
  in testing, independent of who runs the tests
• Tracks historical data on all test executions

• Defect tracking and management
• Process of reporting, tracking and analyzing
  issues throughout the software application
  lifecycle
• Define workflow for audit trail
• Automatically records and coordinates the
  resolution of defects

Why Choose SCTM Over TestDirector?

• Scheduling
• TD does not provide the option to schedule test
  sets to run periodically.
• TD does not have a built-in test set scheduler!
• Ability to correlate test plans, test runs
  results
• Difficult to do so with the integration of TD and
  ST
• Built-in reporting engine
