1.Understanding Requirements
2. Identify Stakeholders
Engage Teams: Collaborate with product managers, developers, and QA teams to understand their
needs and expectations regarding credits and debits.
Choose Tools: Select project management tools (like Jira, Trello, or Azure DevOps) to track credits
and debits.
Custom Fields: Set up custom fields to categorize features (credits) and bugs (debits) effectively.
4. Categorization
Define Categories: Create categories for different types of credits (new features, enhancements)
and debits (bug fixes, technical debt).
Planning
Test Planning: Create test cases for all new features (credits) and regression tests for bug fixes
(debits).
Automated Testing: Implement automated testing frameworks to cover new functionalities and
ensure bugs are resolved without introducing new issues.
.Monitoring and Reporting
Dashboards: Use dashboards to provide real-time visibility of credits and debits, helping teams
track progress and identify bottlenecks.
KPI Tracking: Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) related to credits (e.g., feature
delivery rate) and debits (e.g., bug resolution time).
4.0 Action Plan
Equitable Focus: By tracking credits and debits, teams can ensure that they are not overly focused
on feature development at the expense of maintaining code quality.
Quality Monitoring: Regularly addressing debits (bugs and technical debt) ensures that the
software remains robust and reliable, reducing the likelihood of production issues.
Prioritization: Tracking credits and debits allows teams to prioritize their work based on business
value, technical necessity, and urgency, ensuring optimal use of resources
4. Risk Management
Identifying Technical Debt: Tracking debits helps teams identify areas of technical debt that may
pose risks in the future, allowing for proactive management.
Mitigating Future Issues: Addressing bugs and performance issues promptly reduces the risk of
more significant problems arising later in the development lifecycle.
Ensure an equitable focus on developing new features (credits) while addressing bugs and
technical debt (debits).
Foster a culture that values both innovation and maintenance.
Course outcomes:-
Credits refer to new features, enhancements, and improvements that add value to the software
product. These are often driven by user requirements and market demands.
Debits encompass bugs, technical debt, and maintenance tasks that need to be addressed to
ensure the software’s quality and longevity (Petersen & Wohlin, 2010).
Pass/Fail Status:
Clear documentation indicating whether each test case has passed or failed based on the expected
outcomes.
Test Coverage Metrics:
Metrics showing the percentage of requirements covered by test cases, ensuring comprehensive testing.
Defect Reports
Version Control: Maintain different versions of test data sets. This helps in testing different scenarios
without overwriting existing data.
Data Inventory: Keep track of various data sets used for testing, including configurations, parameters,
and expected outcomes.
Cataloging Test Cases: Organize and manage test cases as inventory items, allowing easy access and
updates.
Traceability: Ensure that each test case is linked to specific requirements, making it easier to track
coverage and results.
