Test Evidence includes documentation and artefacts that provide proof of testing activities and results. This can consist of test cases, test scripts, execution reports and defect logs.
Importance of Test Evidence:
- Traceability: Links requirements to specific tests conducted.
- Accountability: Provides records that demonstrate compliance with quality standards.
- Improvement Opportunities: Helps identify areas for improvement in future projects based on past performance.
Collecting comprehensive test evidence supports effective communication with stakeholders regarding product quality.
