RE: What should Development require of QA?
The question is not clear. As far as i understood it goes like this...
During the process of developing the application development starts writing the code and QA starts the test planning phase. By the time Dev completes the coding QA is ready with the test cases. These test cases are used by the Dev team while doing test harness Whitebox testing. This helps them in flushing some of the bugs. At the end when the application comes to QA they would try to avoid common usability and some other bugs. This reduces the QA effort and the Dev effort which helps in providing a quality product / project to the client.
when the quality analyst did find bugs in the application they should send the bug through a bug tracking tool and should explain him in datail about the bug so that developer can understand it.
The Development team wants the QA to identify those bugs that they generally fail to identify during the unit testing.
QA team is expected to perform good amount of testing and report the bug to the developmet team so that they can fix that. and once the bug is fixed they are expected to re-test and verify the same.
