I didn't say to him to start from scratch now and all the time, I said he should first explain the risks and then explain how is the current strategy, then people can advice of how to stir the ship. What he's done was to skip the base reasons and say "here is what I have, what testing can I do?". He missed the "testing for what?" part. | |

Even though James has a point in theory, and even though you should know the risks involved, practically you simply can't afford to dismantle a big system to every possible risk and then work backwords to find ways to test the risks. | |

| Jun 2, 2020 at 22:42 | comment | added | João Farias | Testing is an investigation activity to answer questions empirically. The question is backward: Given a certain risk, a testing strategy is developed, which includes which techniques, tools, and environments would be used to fulfill it. In summary, you need to first state your context, risks so people can assess how your strategy, tools, and environments fit on them, determining points for improvement. | |
