Issue Summary

Test automation scripts are not consistently paired to the correct version of the Software Under Test (SUT)

Category

Process

Examples

There is no revision control for the automated scripts, so that it's not possible to run tests for different versions of the SUT
There is no revision control, not even for the SUT

Questions

Does development have revision control?
Who manages revision control? Development?

Resolving Patterns

Most recommended:

  • GOOD DEVELOPMENT PROCESS: Use good development practices for test code; the same as developers (should) use for production code
  • SHARE INFORMATION: Ask for and give information to managers, developers, other testers and customers
