QE Perspectives - Patterns and Practices

Methodologies and context for where they fit in to Quality Engineering.

In this category

The purpose of this ‘Patterns and Practices’ category is to separate common methodologies and generic approaches from technologies, frameworks, and organizational structures.

It is broad enough to include not only testing-related topics, but also development and operational topics that directly relate to engineering high-quality software outcomes.

Of course, many topics often touch on how they relate to other categories, but the intent is to provide a compendium of useful knowledge around quality engineering patterns and practices that can be considered independently from what tools or team dynamics are currently in play.
