Test Monitoring involves tracking the progress and status of testing activities throughout the testing lifecycle. It identifies variances from planned activities and reports findings to stakeholders.
Key Activities:
- Status Reporting: Providing updates on testing progress.
- Variance Analysis: Identifying differences between planned and actual performance.
- Risk Management: Assessing potential risks that may impact testing outcomes.
Effective test monitoring helps ensure that projects stay on track and meet deadlines. It allows teams to make informed decisions based on real-time data about the testing process.
Tools for test monitoring can include dashboards, reporting software, or project management applications that provide visibility into ongoing testing efforts.
