Quality testing dashboard

Quality testing dashboard
The tool would gather information as test cases were created, as problem reports were entered, and as test cases were executed. The data would automatically be gathered into a database and online up to the second, and reporting would be available at all times.

Because the test management system fosters a structured test process, it can provide several reports and processes that would otherwise require extensive manual data collection, organization, analysis, and reporting.

Throughout the lifecycle of a project, the test management system can provide relevant status reporting to facilitate planning, test execution, results tracking, and release decisions.

1. During test development, reports are available to determine what work has been completed and what tasks remain open.

2. During execution, the test management system tracks scripts that have been executed and those that have not, the result of the execution of each script, and the requirements coverage achieved and links to defects reported due to failed test cases, to provide a complete view of the release readiness.

Reports just based on defect tracking data show incomplete status; for example, a report that there are ten open defects does not tell much, unless we know how many test cases have been executed and how much requirements coverage is achieved by these test cases. We can use test management data to generate this missing information. Test case metrics complement defect reports metrics and give a better view of product quality.

Apart from this, other reports can be generated based on different attributes like type of test, modules, etc. Test management can provide objective, accurate, real-time information, which is just what is needed for deciding on the quality of a product. This is the most important benefit of having a structured testing process and tool. Based on test reports available, the product manager can make informed decisions about the quality of the application under development.
