Test Cycle Hard Facts
One of the hard facts of a test cycle is the requested language that always needs to be remembered to avoid submitting reports that cannot be understood and that, during customers’ test cycles, might get rejected straightforwardly depending on the test’s schedule.
For instance, this submission of a valid bug on a German test shows English text (don't worry, it was accepted after fixed!):
If you're unsure about the language you've to use to write your bug reports, check the ❝Terms of this test❞ at the top of the ❝Overview❞ page:
To master the analysis of the information on what to test and what information to consider before joining a test, head to our comprehensive Academy article: ❝Test Scope❞.
Another essential reason why analysing the hard facts of a test cycle is important is that this analysis is the basis of becoming more productive while testing.
As explained in the first episode of our miniseries: ❝Work Smarter, Not Harder❞… this is a must listen!
This first episode delivers what is promised: ❝How to Pick the Right Tests❞, a practical guide to identifying the proper tests for you, which is crucial when starting testing!
A good catch: when testing is just about the little details
Details are important when testing. They help us describe scenarios better and identify the issues faster and also catch bugs that regular users cannot see and can scale into more significant problems.
As this ❝NULL❞ found on the tooltip of a wishlist heart icon on the same Product Detail Page.
Since this bug was found only on this product, its impact is low, so it was accepted as a content bug; however, it can scale into a functional bug since this is a Javascript implementation that might change the state of the product, pointing to ❝no data❞ whatsoever.
Nice catch, rrmehta83!
