Quality Assurance and Versioning Plan

Iterative testing is an essential element of Agile. This requires  tracking the changes made and making sure all members of the team have  the correct version of the program.

Quality Assurance (QA) in Systems Development is a set of processes  that ensure the delivered systems meet the pre-defined expectations.  Note that QA is not testing. Software Configuration Management consists  of a set of tasks that track and control changes to the environment.  Configuration management incudes software source version control. 

The Director of Software Engineering has noted that some members of  the team are not following the company's Quality Assurance and Version  Plan and has asked you to present to the team in order to help them and  your intern understand the importance of the plan.
