    What makes a good QA or Test manager?


		A good QA, test, or QA/Test(combined) manager should:


    * be familiar with the software development process


* be able to maintain enthusiasm of their team and promote a positive
atmosphere, despite what is a somewhat 'negative' process (e.g.,
looking for or preventing problems)

    * be able to promote teamwork to increase productivity

    * be able to promote cooperation between software, test, and QA engineers

    * have the diplomatic skills needed to promote improvements in QA processes


* have the ability to withstand pressures and say 'no' to other
managers when quality is insufficient or QA processes are not being
adhered to

    * have people judgement skills for hiring and keeping skilled personnel

    * be able to communicate with technical and non-technical people, engineers, managers, and customers.

    * be able to run meetings and keep them focused
