NOTES:

Will attend feature grooming meetings. Work with Dev Architecture teams “what are we actually building”

“How do we test this feature.” Is this billing? Is it a UI Change?

Primary output of the test architect is documentation. Put together ‘test scenarios’, high level testing instructions for hands on testers, but other organizations (billing ops, UAT).&

Someone with great communication skills. Writing documentation, but support the testers as they go through their testing cycles. ‘We’ve opened up a defect the devs are saying ‘no, it’s not supposed to work that way’, Test Architect interacts with Dev team to clarify questions. All way through deployment post deployment support.&
