When should Quality Assurance should run in a project?

Quality assurance (QA) should ideally be integrated throughout the entire product lifecycle, from the very beginning of development to post-production and ongoing support. This means that QA activities should be performed at every stage of the process, including planning, design, development, testing, deployment, and support. Here's a more detailed breakdown: 1. Early Stages: QA should be involved in the planning and design phases to ensure that requirements are clearly defined, feasible, and aligned with desired quality standards. This can help identify potential issues early on and prevent costly rework later. 2. Development Phase: During the development phase, QA can perform various tests, including unit tests, integration tests, and system tests, to ensure that the code and system are working as expected. 3. Testing Phase: This is the primary focus of QA, where rigorous testing is performed to identify defects and ensure that the product meets the specified requirements. 4. Deployment Phase: QA can also be involved in ensuring that the product is deployed correctly and that the deployment process is stable and reliable. 5. Post-Production and Ongoing Support: Even after the product is released, QA continues to play a role in monitoring the product's performance, identifying any issues that may arise, and providing feedback for future improvements. Using dotProject Cloud (www.dotproject.cloud) you can setup the whole quality assurance plan, configuring the items to be audited, when to audit( as described above), who is going to audit and how. Its results may be documented in the tool as part of the monitoring and controlling of project progress.

WBS - Reach your goals by organizing the work in small parts which can be easily carried out and managed

However normally complex deliverables can block teamwork, in a way individuals focus on the work in what are more “explicit” defined, such as operational activities, including simple communications, small tasks, small improvements and corrections. However, the real work, which will move the project further, is left by side, losing space for the routines and operational tasks. For this purpose, a good WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) may assist the project to be smoothly achieved. When we can divide the work into a way the things that have to be constructed or done are detailed, reducing any doubt about the next step, the project planning has great chances of being properly executed.
