Test managers and test leads running test projects must always manage the testing effort as a project in its own right. They need to be able to allocate resources to different testing tasks and keep track of progress and risks throughout the test project. Most importantly, they are expected to provide accurate estimates for each feature to be delivered and accurate time frame when it will be tested. In order to meet these challenges, test managers and test leads need to have a test management and test design methodology, plus a fully integrated tool to guide them in completing the different tasks within the test project and to help them trace testing artifacts back to other project artifacts.
In this presentation, Dr. Magdy Hanna will show how Rommana™ , an integrated software lifecycle management methodology and tool uses SBDT™, Scenario-Based Methodology for Development Testing to manage requirements, use cases, and changes throughout the project. Some of the features that will be discussed in this presentation are:
Using SBDT™, Scenario-Based Methodology for Development Testing, to design test scenarios, test cases, and test scripts.
Dr. Hanna is a recognized educator, speaker and consultant in several areas of software engineering. His distinguished seminars on various topics have been highly rated by software professionals. His experience with software goes back to the mid 1970's, when he worked as a developer at the NCR Center and the American University in Cairo , Egypt . Over the last thirty-five years, Dr. Hanna has worked in all aspects and capacities of software projects and processes. He has trained over 50,000 professionals around the world over the last 20 years. His passion and enthusiasm for testing, process improvement, and software engineering are contagious.
Dr. Hanna also served as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Software Test Professionals, a publication of the International Institute for Software Testing, now the Bug Free Zone(www.iist.org/bugfreezone). As a professor of Software Engineering at the University of St. Thomas , he taught graduate courses on several software engineering topics with emphasis on practical software quality techniques. Dr. Hanna consults with companies to define and improve their software processes using disciplined software engineering approaches.
Dr. Hanna developed new approaches and methods in software engineering including the Scenario-Based Development and Testing (SBDT), Requirement-Based Project Management (RBPM), Software Quality Engineering Methodology (SQEngineer), the Unified Data Model (UDM), and the Data-Driven Object Model ( DOM ). Dr. Hanna and his instructors conduct hundreds of free online webinars each year.
Dr. Hanna holds a Ph.D. and a Masters Degree in Computer and Information Sciences form the University of Minnesota , also a Masters in Operations Research from Cairo University , and B. Sc. in Petroleum Engineering from Suez Canal University, Egypt.
