Regardless which project management methodology you choose, you’ll still guide your projects through a project lifecycle.

The methodologies differ in how they progress through the lifecycle’s stages or phases and how you schedule and manage the work that’s performed.

In this session, John & Bonnie will explore implementing these methodologies in more detail. In addition, we’ll look at scheduling for these methodologies in Microsoft Project.

Test cases are the fundamental element of testing. Yet, all sorts of different conceptions abound regarding test cases. Some testers are absolutely certain that test cases must be written in a specific format.

Other testers say they don’t need test cases at all. Could they both be right-or both be wrong?

In this interactive presentation, testing expert Robin Goldsmith reveals seldom-recognized important insights about test cases, including:

• Five different ways people view the same test
• Four keys to effective test cases
• Issues with embedding keystroke-level procedural detail
• Alternative low-overhead test case formats
• How to avoid hidden traps that overlook major groups of key test cases
