QA testing is one of the most important processes used in developing MVPs. Certainly, it allows you to deliver high-quality software to customers. Further, it can prevent and fix errors during expected functioning.
Despite QA engineers being asked to test products before their launch, the reality is that they are needed in each phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). With this in mind, clients avoid excessive expenses and delays during the final stages of product development.
In the Tech Webinar: Intro to QA! How does it fit within the SDLC?, our instructor Pavel, Quality Assurance Engineer at Advancio, taught us the basics and phases of the software development life cycle and testing within a QA team. The webinar also covered the importance of the quality assurance process in a project. Watch it here to laern more about the most famous bugs in software history!
