SCOTT'S QA & TESTING WORLD

My name is Scott Winters. I am an independent Certified Software Test Engineer (QAI) with 5 solid years of QA experience. I specialize in functional software testing and quality assurance consulting, and QA process implementation.

My primary background is in client/server testing, relational databases, VRU/telephony. Mercury (TestDirector), some Compuware and Rational test tools. See my resume link at the bottom of this page for detailed information.

What I can offer your company or QA team:
1) Solid client/server testing experience.
2) Mercury (TestDirector/WinRunner) test tool experience.
3) Black box and white box testing experience
4) Complete testing methodology experience.
5) Test lead and QA Manager experience.

Is your company having trouble with its software QA process and/or release procedures? Or do you need a Testing Consultant to help write and execute scripts, assist with incident-tracking, and provide input from an "outsider's" perspective?

I may be able to help your QA department smooth out the pre-implementation process by laying out a customized, structured QA procedure that you can follow again and again. Following the "V-Model" methodology, this process has been proven and successful. I am not versed in computer programming or coding, nor do I claim to be (and never will) a software developer.

My focus is on [functional] testing execution, testing methodology, QA processes, testing deliverables and documentation.
