Q. 3: How can we estimate the total number of testers required for our project?
We have a simple formula
Total no. of testers = (Total testing hours) / (Total no. of weeks x Hours/week)
For example:
If total testing hours = 100
Total no. of weeks = 4
Hours / week = 25
Then, No. of testers required = 100 / (4X25) = 1 tester.
