Auditing Quality Assurance (QA) involves periodically auditing an organization's QA processes, tools, practices, and documentation to ensure effectiveness, efficiency, and adherence to relevant standards. Auditing QA includes observing testers and reviewing defect reports to ensure efficient bug-catching. Auditing the QA team by experienced professionals reassures you that everything is aligned with development goals and that their processes are efficient. A QA audit helps strengthen the entire software development cycle by pinpointing weaknesses and enhancing the reliability and quality of the software.
