I've recently joined an organisation in a role to improve part of the Program office. One task I've been presented with is to set up a Regression Testing methodology. Although I've managed many projects before and overseen testing, I have limited experience producing a specific testing approach/method.
Any suggestions?
FYI The organisation is a Financial Services company with multiple applications and good support for methodology and process improvement. Saving Changes...
Firstly the Scope for Regression Testing should be clearly defined. In many cases Regression Testing is optional and depends upon the type or number of defects raised & fixed or Testing Strategy defined at the Project Plan level.
The code/configuration done for a defect need to be analyzed and its impact analysis will determine the scope for regression Testing. Saving Changes...
