5 Reasons Why You Should Use A Test Management Tool

 5 Reasons Why You Should Use A Test Management Tool

With increasing complexity in software programs and a large number of various platforms and devices that need to get tested, a proper management system needs to be put in place to ensure error-free processes and efficient allocation of limited testing resources towards areas of most importance. A test management tool is a solution to this problem that enables you to plan, monitor, and audit your test executions. Test management is one of the most important parts of the software lifecycle, which is often neglected in terms of the availability of tools to make it more efficient and manageable.

Traditionally, QA companies that do not use test management software use MS Word and MS Excel for storing requirements and results, and tracking bugs. This makes it difficult and time-consuming to measure progress and measurability.

Test management tools are specifically designed to address these challenges. In this article, we will discuss 5 main reasons why you should use a test management tool.

Easy to track bugs

As opposed to using a test management tool, the manual process will require going through the entire code to find bugs, noting it down, informing developers, and retesting. And there is a significant probability that after this lengthy procedure, a crucial bug might be overlooked. A test management tool, on the other hand, will save time and effort by identifying and documenting bugs. This makes the error-tracing process much easier.

Test Reports and Traceability Metrics

The test management tool provides detailed analytics and testing progress reports such as test case execution reports, defect detection reports, etc. This resolves the problem of measurability which would be faced when using traditional methods.

Secure Testing Data

Key project information about your project and test assets remain secure when using test management software. SSL driven security protocols allow the team to distribute data confidentially without worrying about leakage or misuse of information. It provides security parameters and individual user access based on their permission level.

Improved Coverage of Manual Tests

Manually testing different datasets is a challenging and hectic task as it requires you to manually try different datasets for specific test steps. A test management tool can make this process very easy by repeating the existing manual test which will help increase the coverage of existing manual tests.

Reduced Duplication of Data

Data is often duplicated because of siloed systems. A test management tool can reduce this duplication to make sure that everyone has one view of the progress being made.
