| 14:00 - 16:00 | Reliable Test Effort Estimation | Ruud Teunissen, Polteq IT Services BV |
How do you estimate your test effort? And how reliable is that estimate?
Ruud Teunissen presents a practical and useful test estimation technique related directly to the maturity of your test and development process.
A reliable effort estimation approach requires five basic elements:
(1) Strategy – Determine what to test (performance, functionality, etc.) and how thoroughly it must be tested.
(2) Size – Yes, it does matter—not only the size of the system but also the scope of your tests.
(3) Expected Quality – What factors have been established to define quality?
(4) Infrastructure and Tools – Define how fast you can test. Without the proper organizational support and the necessary tools, you’ll need time you may not have.
(5) Productivity – How experienced and efficient is your team?
Join Ruud to improve your test estimations and achieve more realistic goal setting and test strategies.
