In this chapter, we covered the best approaches for selecting various project execution strategies, as well as different approaches to execute test cases during the test execution phase. The TMap provides a structured approach for testing. We learned about the BDTM approach. For shorter and less complex requirements, the ad hoc test strategy can be used to effectively and efficiently test and validate the requirements. We learned how ad hoc testing can be implemented using the Jira plugins. Execution in test cycles is required to organize and manage test cases for bigger and more complex projects. We learned how test cycles can be created and organized using the Jira plugins. Finally, we discussed the best practices to establish a strong foundation for effective test management.
In the next chapter, we'll learn about different aspects of test planning and test strategies, while understanding the relationship between requirements and the test plan.
