When considering the roles of test leader and tester, which of the following tasks would NOT typically be performed by a tester?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Writing test summary reports is typically the responsibility of a test leader or manager, who consolidates testing activities and results to communicate with stakeholders. Testers are more involved in preparing and acquiring test data, setting up and checking the test environment, and reviewing tests developed by others. These tasks are more hands-on and technical, aligning with the role of a tester .

Writing test summary reports? That's just way too much paperwork for a tester. We're the ones in the trenches, breaking things and having fun! Leave the boring reporting to the test lead.

Yes, testers do review tests developed by others. So, the answer is C) Write test summary reports.

But don't testers also review tests developed by others?

This is a tricky one! I'd say A and B are definitely tester tasks, but C seems more like a test leader responsibility. Guess I'm not the only one who's confused about the line between the two roles.

D. Review tests developed by others sounds like a test leader task to me. Testers are usually busy creating their own test cases, not reviewing others'.

Hmm, I think the test leader would be the one to write the test summary reports. As a tester, I'd focus more on the hands-on work like preparing data and setting up the environment.

I agree with Penney. Test summary reports are usually prepared by the test leader.
