A friend refered me to Orcanos QPack. This appears to be another candidate for the Product Life-cycle management segment. The company is based in Israel, and so far I’ve only briefly glanced at their documentation, and it seems interesting. Not much references in Google though… If anyone has looked into this tool and can compare …
Rosie Sherry writes a very interesting blog focused on software testing.One of these days I’ll point to some of the interesting blogs I’m reading regularly. In any case, One of her recent posts was “Hunt for Test Case Management System” where she discusses the lack of a killer test management solution, but tries to outline …
How do you know your QA effort is being effective ? Based on the different stakeholders which require input from the QA a typical answer might be that Product quality is high when released to customers. Assuming that is indeed more or less what someone expects (I’d say effective QA needs to answer to some …
There are a couple of alternatives for managing severity and priority in the Issue Tracker.Although there are many resources out there on this subject (see http://del.icio.us/yyeret/priority_severity) I’ll try to consolidate them and provide my 2c on the matter, as I think its an important subject.

Why am I open about this?One …
I intend to post some reference to resources I’m fond of in the area of R&D;, QA, methodology and the like. In the meantime, anyone who’s interested in what I have to say will probably see some value in looking at FogBugz Online Documentation. I was referred there by Zeljko Filipin’s blog which is aggregated …
In another post in the series about QA/DEV protocols, I’ll talk about opening high quality bugs, why its important, what are the forces operating on each side of the trench here, and try to describe an approach that might improve the state of affairs a bit. First – a definition. What is a high quality …

Anyone who’s ever been in either of those organizations knows that sometimes there seems to be a conflict of interest between QA and DEV, which can lead to friction between the groups and the people. Obviously when both …

In the time since that post I didn’t find much information about this, and didn’t see tools taking …
