Centralized defect tracking and management Seamless collaboration with developers Data-driven defect prioritization and assignment Real-time defect status visibility Enhanced resolution cycles and software quality Actionable insights for process improvement

I utilized the ticketing system to showcase the continuous improvement of QMS. The primary advantage of the ticketing system lies in its ability to gather data. I devised a system that consolidates data collected from the ticketing system and categorizes it. This information was then utilized to identify training needs, pinpoint gaps between procedures, determine areas requiring more supervision, monitoring, or audits. Quality methodologies were applied to establish corrective and preventive actions. The data was further transformed into reports, enabling senior management to make decisions based on qualitative rather than quantitative information.

QA teams can use ticketing systems effectively by ensuring clear and concise communication, tracking issues and bugs, prioritizing tasks, and collaborating with other team members. The ticketing system can serve as a central hub for all QA-related activities, allowing team members to document and assign tasks, track their progress, and escalate issues when needed. Additionally, using tags and labels can help categorize and prioritize tickets, making it easier to manage and prioritize tasks. Regularly reviewing and updating the tickets ensures transparency and accountability within the team. Overall, ticketing systems streamline the QA process and enhance collaboration among team members.

1. No matter how many roles or teams have access to a ticketing system, ownership and procedure should always be crystal clear. Chain of custody should be clearly scoped out, documented, and regularly reviewed. Your SOP needs work if comments are flying back and forth in Slack / the system to determine who's doing what. 2. A ticket is not a feature, it's a single unit of work. There's 0 ambiguity regarding scope when work is done or a PR is generated on a ticket. This forces shaping/scoping to happen elsewhere, but that's what works best for our team. 3. Use what works - don't overstructure. Good SOPs enable comms by minimizing them. Bring the info that's needed to the table (Figma designs, shaping docs, etc.) and nothing more.

In my experience, teamwork hinges on collaboration, and the ticketing system plays a vital role. It sparks creativity, propelling us to achieve goals. Additionally, it serves as a centralized hub for communication, task management, and real-time updates, promoting transparency and efficiency while maintaining a valuable historical record of team accomplishments.

A ticketing system aids task prioritization by categorizing issues by severity, setting clear due dates, managing dependencies, and fostering collaborative decision-making. It ensures efficient allocation of resources and timely completion of high-priority tasks.

I believe it goes beyond just the QA team. How things are prioritized and worked on should include the business analysts and developers at a minimum. It really needs to be a team effort.

One thing I found helpful in ticketing, it really leads to a timely and precise completion of things. For effective ticketing, communication with team members will be held which will play a vital role to complete priority tasks efficiently.

Follow Testing Lifecyle 1. Planning 2. Design 3. Implementation 4. Execution 5. Evaluation 6. Reporting 7.

Must follow the Testing Lifecycle to reduced your RISK.

Prioritisation of the tickets ?? according to the severity & with respect to the customer obsession ??♀?is the key of handling it. Otherwise it will be a chaos within the Engineering team to pick which task first.??.

A ticketing system aids QA in reporting accurately by providing a centralized platform to document, track, and communicate testing issues. It ensures clarity, accountability, and a systematic approach to reporting, facilitating accurate and efficient communication within the QA team and with other stakeholders.

Often times, reporting is directed solely to the development team for the purposes of resolving a requirement expectation. However, it is just as important to share the reporting with the Customer team(s). Often time, it has resolved issues with understanding of a requirement that results in a better product, a better understanding of how the Customer sees it being used, and an overall higher rate of defect resolution.

I find it extremely important for large projects to have a template for defects report and make sure QA engineers, Product managers and developers are on the same page when it comes to prioritising and severity of the issues found.

Yes, real time results can be more effective and efficient collecting datas. Thats why we called quality to keep our datas 101% to maintain the perfect recipe’s.

Resumidamente, priorize tickets com sabedoria, escolhendo de forma que os mesmos n?o venham a escorregar entre um Sprint e outro. Atuando na colabora??o da descri??o desses tickets com o máximo de clareza. Podemos ainda manter a comunica??o ativa sobre o andamento do ticket via notifica??es, ainda mais se for ticket de bug.

Revisit you business goals, analyze what you need to understand / improve / ... as your measurment goals, ask the right questions, create or check the metrics you already have and analyze your data to answer those questions to support your business goals. And in case your ticketing system measures much more: get rid of the numbers as they only cost you money and effort. This sounds good? Then find out more by searching for GQM Goal-Question-Metric and QIP Quality Improvement Paradigm. (Not invented but surely used and promoted by me).

There is a number of ite,s to take on account: 1. Severity scale to be clearly defined. What QA sees a severuty x should match the rest of the team's assessment. 2. Ticket not only to clearly described but to have also accurate steps to be reproduced. 3. If a ticket is not reproducible still a record is needed to gather as much info as possible. 4. It is very important to have infomation that mau is not directly linked with the problem but it could impact the outcome of the function.

Seek for BA’s review, understand how the issue affects production environment. Demand for long-term fixes, work arounds might affect other functionalities of the product so fixing the issue with proper norm can be effective

For me using a ticket system effectively means that all team and not only QA have set expectation and everyone complies with what needs to be there. It is usually hard to remmebre all rules for entry. So a ticket system that has features to force rules on what is entered is always a great approach.
