Being Agile means managing changing requirements, accommodating frequent releases, having very good QA processes to support the same. Below blog post is on communicating test Estimates. It's all hypothetical scenarios :). I'm sharing my personal opinion. Before you actually test a project you would be asked to provide test estimates for upcoming projects.
Let’s take below reply
Explanation One
- For testing the changes in this feature, It would require 2 days
Let's see how this explanation can be probed - Peer QA might say, in my opinion, these changes would take only one day to test
Explanation two
- This changes would require 2 days for testing
- I would be covering below test scenarios
Let's see how this explanation can be probed - Few scenarios are missed, below scenarios can be additionally covered
Explanation three
- This changes would require 2 days for testing
- I would be covering below test scenarios
- In scope - Below Cases
- Out of Scope - A and B Features
Let's see how this explanation can be probed - Good to do regression / Sanity testing of B as they also seem to be affected
Explanation Four
- Assumption - Change would be affecting A, B and C Features
- In scope - Below Cases
- Out of Scope - A and B Features
- This changes would require 2 days for testing
- I would be covering below test scenarios
Let's see how this explanation can be probed - This provides the context of the QA. Level of understanding, In-scope, out of scope items. I would rate it a good estimate providing the reviewer good amount of information on estimates and coverage.
Moving a step forward in this discussion would be adding dependencies/risks
Happy Reading!!
