The developer�s role here is not trivial. As you contribute to this strategy
document, keep these three points in mind:
If you are working on a large project, you need to formulate an overall
Testing Strategy during the analysis phase. The Testing Strategy defines the
overall approach to testing and describes how the testing process will
ensure that the solution has the appropriate level of quality and
reliability.
The Testing Strategy provides the overall guidelines from which all
future testing decisions are made. A well-crafted Testing Strategy allows
the rest of the testing process to be defined more effectively.
The Testing Strategy needs to be understood and approved by the sponsor.
If the strategy is accepted, there is a much better likelihood that the
final solution will meet the customer�s expectations.
