What makes a great QA team?
A great QA team is proactive, maintains a high quality of work, and follows all project deliverables by the stated deadlines. The team also maintains transparent communication channels to build trust with the clients. While these characteristics are not the only things to look for in your QA provider, they are essential to keeping the partnership alive and strong.
