What is the best way to report test results? "I like to take reporting back to a couple of fundamental questions. Who are you reporting to? What do they need to know?" Bingo! The keys to all communication. |

How to QA the QA candidates… what should I look for in a QA person Note - in your job posting, you might not want to use "to QA" as a verb. Instead, use "to test". Candidates will like you for that. |

Should automated tests be efficient? "When you are assuring the quality of the product, the quality of your test script is as important." I have to disagree. As long as you end up with a high-quality product, the quality of your test script is not important at all. Customers buy your product, not your test scripts. |

Accessibility Testing - Should it be considered functional testing or non functional testing? In your shop, does it matter in which category Accessibility Testing in placed? Is it funded or staffed differently? |

Testing a data de-duplication and matching engine Some excellent points here. In particular, "populate a clean database with data that covered as much of our de-duping logic as we had time to test, and then would query the database after the service was done running to verify that only the expected data remained." is one of the keys to success, IMHO. |

Testing webservice engine: best practice Rakesh - if you need to validate large amounts of data exhaustively for some reason, your parallel application is a perfectly reasonable approach toward that. But is "large amount of data" important here? Usually when I'm testing a data delivery mechanism like a web service, I use test data. Often a fairly small amount of test data will suffice, and a parallel delivery mechanism isn't necessary. |

Testing email generation "Doesnt work so well for systems that require each email address to be unique however. In that case you may have to setup a large number of test accounts." Sometimes, you can create "unique" email addresses by appending a suffix to a single address. For example John.Smith+123@gmail.com is different from John.Smith+234@gmail.com. But Gmail will deliver both to John.Smith@gmail.com. Try it with your own gmail account! |
