  • Who will own each environment? This needs to be listed in the test plan

• Resources

Bugs that must be fixed before release candidate

@Sam Im (Deactivated)

Create different test cycles for each team that contain multiple components in each test cycle.

Reorganize test cases by new features first?

Reviewing test cases when they are new: Test cases that haven't been reviewed should be in a QA status. QA person will review test case and decide if the test is a CoreRegression testing. 

Every 2-3 sprints, review test cases that were tested or impacted by the most recent changes. Check test cases to ensure they are still valid and steps are correct.

• Include requirement to periodically review test cases in test strategy

• Review new test cases as they are created
