Question!
I am looking for a particular kind of software, where a department can track the progress of QA testing of a certain physical product, and also be able to track issues for a particular product too.
All should be searchable with a serial number that the physical device has.
I dont know what that kind of software is called, and I dont know where to start searching for it either :P
Yeah, I have checked a few like Kanbans - but they dont have a real search and stuff.
We need to keep track of tens of thousands of devices and keep it for decades
@selea That really sucks. Maybe a sqlite based application might best suit you, but finding it will be easier said than done.
Maybe, I'm not sure, you can use a Kanban for it, like Kanboard or other similar softwares.
I thought about it, but it would not be ideal actually. Since we manufacture tens of thousands of devices that we need to keep track of and keep the history for 7-10 years
@selea@social.linux.pizza I think issue trackers can be used for that with custom fields like Redmine (I think it has this functionality built-in, but if not, there is a plugin for it, i used Redmine like 5ish years ago last time) or Bugzilla.
Not a bad idea actually, I already have Bugzilla up and running. Maybe that would work.
Sucks that it does not look good on phone thou :P
@selea perhaps build something simple with Django? Or do you want something existing?
I wish I was smart enough to write code.
@selea Not sure if i understand the requirement completely, but maybe https://www.polarion.com/products/qa/test-automation ?
Thanks!
I have since that toot, left that company. But Ill send it to my old colleagues
@selea Oops.. Sorry. I joined yesterday and still making myself acquainted with the platform :D
no worries!
Appriecte the link anyway :)
@selea That sounds like a regular old ticketing system. The same kind that tech support would use to track tech issues.
