How to launch bug free product


Background

The quality of product launched not only affect the various product metric but also affect the perception of the brand .When the product launched has lot of bugs user may fill irritate and may not return back to the site.Launch a bug free product is therefore critical not only for improving product metrics but also for building good brand perception about the company.

There are various way through which the number of bugs can be drastically reduced.I would discuss here

Comprehensive PRD

 Quality of product mainly depend on how comprehensive the requirement is.In order to write comprehensive requirement one should ask following questions while writing PRD
  • What is the goal of the feature?
  • How will be the navigation of the product?
  • What are the different area from which the product will be accessible for app /Site?
  • What will happen when user click on particular interactive element?
  • How the product will impact SEO? How to make it SEO friendly?
  • What should be business  logic for various scenarios?
  • How the  product behave in different devices?
  • Is there a marketing plan required for the product?
  • Is all the expectation from product covered in the test cases

These set of question can help in ensuring that all the requirement of the product is covered in the PRD.

Development team syncup

 The product will be developed as per requirement only when development team is clear with the PRD. Ensure that development team has clear understanding of the PRD .In case there are doubts it  should be clarified before the start of development so as to avoid unwanted iteration.

Regular interaction with the developer

During the development phase regularly interact with developer to ensure that everything is as per requirement.Regular interaction will ensure that any deviation from requirement can be corrected in the earlier stage and thus reduce the delay.

User acceptance testing


Though testing team would have done multiple round of testing there may be scenario which testing team would have not foreseen. Before the product is taken  live product manager should do comprehensive user testing so as to ensure that everything is working fine.It is also advisable to request other product managers in team to test the feature so that no scenario is left untested
