Test strategy workshop
A focused working session that locks release risk priorities and decides what must be automated, sampled, or left manual.
Purpose
When automation debates stall in Slack threads, a structured test strategy workshop puts product, QA, and engineering in one room with a shared risk board. You leave with a ranked set of checks tied to customer journeys—not a generic “pyramid” poster.
Included
- Pre-read questionnaire (30 minutes of prep per attendee)
- Facilitated risk ranking and journey mapping
- Decision log: automate / sample / monitor / accept
- One-page strategy summary for stakeholders
Not included
Writing the tests themselves or configuring CI runners. Pair this with framework planning when the suite structure still needs a spine.
