In a software project, business analysts write the requirements and developers create software based on these requirements – or at least they are supposed to.
But like everything, creating code comes with natural mistakes, so someone is needed to make sure that the software meets the requirements and does what it was intended to do.
Enter the test analyst!
A test analyst’s job is to make sure that all the business requirements are met in the software and also make sure that when users use the software, they don’t experience any issues or errors.
To make all of this possible, test analysts work very closely with the rest of the project team. They review the requirements written by the business analysts to come up with test cases, they work with a project manager to help create a test plan and schedule, and she tests the software, identifying bugs and works with the developers to track and resolve these issues.
A test analyst role may come last in the software development lifecycle but they are the first to be called when there is an issue. They also provided regular reports for the project team, so everyone knows the status of the project.
In short, a test analyst’s role is crucial to the success of any project, which is why the job pays so well!
