Testing Approach: Incident Management

Thursday, May 14th, 2009

Restoring a normal service operation and minimizing impact on business operations is the work of incident management. The process of incident management ensures that incidents (actual result is different from the expected result) are tracked. The task of test engineers involved in the project is to record and classify the incidents for further investigation.

Incidents are raised on incident reports which have the following objectives:
