Five phases of test participation:

Demand stage

In this phase, the testing work is conducted at the demand Review Meeting, requiring testers to have comprehensive quality such as the industry knowledge involved in the project, good customer communication, and skilled tool use skills, because the application of the UML use case diagram and sequence diagram is added in this phase, the tester needs to review a large number of UML legends.

Design Phase

The testing work in this phase is shown in the design review meeting. The review meeting comprehensively reviews the design model, data model, interface prototype, event-driven model, and other artifacts, this stage has the highest requirement on the overall quality of testers.

Implementation Phase

It is a fantasy to let a person without half-point coding experience Perform unit-level tests. Testers without programming experience cannot grasp the work at this stage. Although most people think that implementation personnel should be fully responsible for unit testing, do you really trust what they do as testers? You still need to do this frequentlyCodeSpot check and other testing activities.

Test phase

Some actions at this stage are a spiritual sustenance of New testers or immature project managers, for example, the so-called simple and rough functional testing (that is, simulating user behavior or simulating your own behavior
). The former finally finds the lowest threshold for entry into the software industry, and the latter finds the reason for employing cheap labor and separating idle enterprise staff. This is really the sorrow of the Chinese software industry.
This stage requires more advanced testers, such as developing some test tools or test drivers.Program.

Deployment phase

This part is facing the final delivery of projects or products, and the importance of testing is particularly important. If the output is in the component form, we need to perform an assembly test, which requires the tester to be able to write a simulated test environment. For example
If the output is in the form of a product, we need to perform installation tests and product adaptability tests for different operating systems, which requires testers to have multi-system operation capabilities. If the output is in different versions of the same product, we need to separate them.
Version products perform version difference tests.
