👋 Hello, I’m Vibhor, and welcome to the 🔒 subscriber-only edition 🔒 of my weekly Training Series powered by Winning Strategy.

Q: I am a Scrum Master in a scaled environment, helping six agile teams. We have recently hired many Test/QA Leads to join the ART as SMEs. I am asked to onboard them to ART. I have a technical background and feel quite comfortable with the different roles I currently work with. However, I am confused about how the QA Lead role will interact with the QAs we already have on board. I would appreciate it if you could share some general understanding of what a QA Lead is responsible for in a scaled environment.
Thank you for the question.
Luckily, I have a deck you can use to onboard Test/QA Leads to your scaled Agile setup.
It explains the difference between the Test Lead and QA roles by highlighting the responsibilities of a Test Lead in various scenarios.
It covers the following in detail:
