Building Testing Teams

Testing Peers

Thank you for joining us for episode 112 of the Testing Peers podcast.

This time around we are talking on the topic of building testing teams, with Simon, Russell, David & Chris.

The banter focuses in on favourite or memorable plot twists.

Then Simon poses this hypothetical scenario - If you landed in a role and you were the first person there who has been given the task to build a [test] team, what would you do?

Russell wins the 'it depends on the context' prize, but of course he is right.

Questions like:
Who are you employed by?
What are their expectations?
What is your budget?
What are the constraints?
What are the dependencies?
Who already is working there?
What is the risk appetite?
Who are the customers?
What does the tech stack look like?
and more….

The Peers dive into biases, measures, agility and more in this episode.

How would you approach starting a testing team from scratch?
