XBOSoft to Host Webinar on Agile Test Management with Traceability

    RESTON, VA, March 25, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- XBOSoft, industry leader in software testing and consulting services, announced today that the firm will co-host an upcoming webinar on JIRA, a proprietary tracking product developed by the Australian enterprise software maker Atlassian. The XBOSoft webinar, titled "How to Implement Agile Test Management from Requirements to Defects," will take place on April 29 and will be hosted by XBOSoft President & CEO, Philip Lew with Doug Bass, SVP of Engineering at Go2Group and Rich Hale, Director of Quality Assurance at Go2Group.

JIRA provides defect tracking, issue tracking and project management functions for teams planning and building software products. JIRA, with it's third party plug-ins and interfaces, enables users to add needed functionality to customize the app for their particular agile implementation.

Philip Lew, co-host of the webinar on agile test management, mentioned, "With many agile shops now moving to lightweight tools such as JIRA, they are finding that agile test management becomes a bear in tracking all the way through from requirements to test cases and defects. In this webinar, we will cover just how to do that using a combination of configuration and plug in options." Lew went on to note that many people think that implementing agile means no documentation, which is incorrect. Documentation is a critical piece of the puzzle and without documentation you have nothing to base your stories on. Tracking requirements and user stories all the way to defects throughout the entire lifecycle is a critical piece of the puzzle for root cause analysis.

XBOSoft is an industry leader in software testing and consulting services, so hosting a webinar that addresses the issues involved in configuring JIRA to manage agile testing was an ideal topic for Lew and his team of software testing experts. Co-host of the webinar, Go2Group, is a global provider of consulting services in application lifecycle management (ALM) systems one of Atlassian's top resellers in North America.
