Who should be responsible for test automation? Developers or the QA? |
|
Answer» As a team is supposed to be a single unit responsible for shipping a quality software system, it’s a team’s responsibility to write, execute, and manage test SCRIPTS. That MEANS the developers and the QA should collaborate and use each others’ skills to perform automation testing effectively. Each team has a different skill set. Some have more technical testers, some have quality-focused developers, and some have testers who came from development backgrounds and vice versa. Hence it’s not a good IDEA to pigeonhole AUTOMATED testing to a particular department. Instead, COLLABORATION and working together is the key to a successful automated testing strategy. |
