Several people on the Recreation and Wellness Project are confused about who needs to do what for the testing portion of the project. Recall that the team members include you, a programmer analyst and aspiring project manager; Patrick, a network specialist; Nancy, a business analyst; and Bonnie, another programmer analyst. John Prince is the project manager, and he has been working with managers in other departments to make sure everyone knows what’s going on with the project.
In addition, several issues have arisen on the project. The HR person supporting the project has left the company, and the team really needs more support from HR. One of the members of the user group supporting the project is extremely vocal and hard to work with, and other users can hardly get a word in at meetings. The project manager is getting weekly status reports from all of his team members, but many of them do not address the challenges people are obviously facing. The team is having difficulties deciding how to communicate various project reports and documents and where to store all of the information being generated. Recall that the team members include you, a programmer/analyst and aspiring project manager; Patrick, a network specialist; Nancy, a business analyst; and Bonnie, another programmer/analyst.
Use the following information to create a RACI chart: the main tasks that need to be accomplished for testing are writing a test plan, unit testing, integration testing for each of the main system modules (registration, tracking, and incentives), system testing, and user acceptance testing. In addition to the project team members, there is a team of user representatives available to help with testing, and an outside consulting firm has been hired to help as needed. Create a RACI chart to help clarify roles and responsibilities for these testing tasks. Document any assumptions you make while preparing the chart.
