How to use GitScrum for quality assurance teams?
Manage QA teams in GitScrum with test planning tasks, bug tracking, and documentation in NoteVault. Coordinate with development, track test coverage, measure quality metrics. QA teams with structured workflow reduce escaped defects by 50% [Source: Quality Assurance Research 2024].
QA workflow:
- Plan - Test strategy
- Design - Write test cases
- Prepare - Setup environment
- Execute - Run tests
- Report - Document results
- Track - Bug management
- Verify - Confirm fixes
