Jira — Concept of Yin and Yang for QA testing

Last, but not least, is the necessity of using tools for software testing. They make it a lot easier, everything is in one place, from planning, development, demo, testing, and all the things that are done in software development process. Jira software testing tool makes the perfect example to provide such process.

As a QA, you’ll be able to provide a planning feedback for a new user story, task or a feature. You can anticipate bugs that are about to happen and warn your development team on time, avoid possible negligence or make it easier for yourself to write test scenarios for manual or automation testing.

The greatest benefit brought by QA is that defects can be prevented before they are implemented. ( “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”, right?!)

With testing tools, you’re directly involved with the whole process (and you should be!) so you don’t have to ask or beg for something every time you need to do your thing.

Developers are from Mars, QA engineers are from Venus and Jira… their galaxy where they all get along (at least coexist), united for the same goal.

Because of a stereotype (or a truth?!) that developers and QA engineers don’t quite get along, that’s why Jira is like a Yin and Yang Concept for software development process and we are not talking about which one are the good guys and which one are the villains, because both developers and QA engineers are the heroes and a must for a software development.
