Q11.7: What happens after I do this?
Question Seven
To understand the potential value, it is critical to learn the potential consequences of our actions.
This is one of the core approaches to how we test using the Q11, and usually the most important piece of information most commonly left out of requirements and specifications.
The focus here is on understanding the final results of the feature or function and the impact on the system.
This question also brings us back to workflow and usability, encouraging an engineer to push past the contracts and actually ensure there is validation on the other side.
