Pzt–Cum: 09.00–18.00
How to distribute tests across business rules, integrations and user journeys instead of treating quality as a final-stage checklist.
Test according to risk
Payment, permission, inventory and irreversible operations deserve stronger coverage than decorative interface behaviour. Rank failures by impact and likelihood, then place the most reliable tests around the highest risks.
Keep most tests close to the rules
Fast unit and feature tests should cover validation, calculations, state transitions and access control. A smaller number of end-to-end tests can protect critical journeys without making the suite slow and fragile.
Control integration boundaries
Use contract tests, fixtures and sandbox environments for external services. Verify timeouts, malformed responses and retry behaviour—not only the happy path.
Make quality part of delivery
Automated checks, code review, static analysis and repeatable deployments create feedback before production. Testing is most valuable when it shortens the distance between a defect and its discovery.
