Test evidence

Every result comes with proof.

Test evidence is the record of what was tested and what happened. Smoketest leaves it on the ticket: the result, the recording, every step, and what it did not test, so anyone can check its work.

Recording looks right. This goes out today.

What comes back on every ticket.

The result

Passed, Failed, or No Result, with the reason in a line.

The recording

Watch the whole test, or jump to the step that failed.

Every step

What it did, what it expected, and what it found.

What it did not test

Each result lists what it left out, and why.

Each person gets what they need from it.

The same proof answers a different question for each person on the ticket.

  1. Developers

    Jump to the failed step instead of reproducing the bug.

  2. QA leads

    Check its work in a minute, and correct what it missed.

  3. Release owners

    See what was tested and what was not before making the call.

  4. Anyone else

    Send a link to the run. They see the same recording and steps.
