Our tool transforms stakeholder workshops into a concrete, data-driven master test plan. Instead of guessing, you get clear answers to questions like what should we test, how deep should we go, and how many test cases are enough. By combining risk, business impact and software quality attributes (such as performance, security and usability), the tool helps you focus effort where it matters most. The result: just enough testing to be confident in your release, without wasting time and budget on low-value test cases.
This master test plan can be easily exported and shared with your team. It includes all data-driven input from our tool, giving you a prefilled, professional master test plan in seconds.
Start every project with a shared, realistic test scope
Stop arguing about what’s in scope.
RiskRover will guide you through project information and key settings so every stakeholder sees the same picture: objectives, releases, environments, constraints and assumptions. Instead of scattered slides and spreadsheets, you get one consistent baseline that test managers, IT and business can all sign off on. That shared start point drastically reduces later scope creep and “we thought you were testing this” discussions.
Make product complexity manageable
From fuzzy feature list to testable structure.
RiskRover can break your system down into a clear Product Breakdown Structure (PBS). Features, modules and integrations are organised in a way that testers can actually work with. This solves the classic problem of “we don’t know what to test where” and helps you see, at a glance, which parts of the product truly drive risk and business value.
Turn risk workshops into hard numbers
No more gut-feel risk lists that nobody uses.
RiskRover will capture stakeholder input in a structured Product Risk Analysis (PRA). Likelihood, impact and affected business processes are quantified instead of staying on sticky notes. Research on test-case prioritization shows that using risk and coverage data to order tests can significantly improve how quickly faults are found compared to running tests in arbitrary order.
The result: you can show exactly why you’re focusing on certain areas, and you have the evidence to defend those choices to management and auditors.
Translate risk into a focused test strategy
Answering “what should we test – and how much is enough?”
RiskRover can convert PRA results into a concrete, risk-based test strategy: which test levels to use, which techniques, and how deep to test each risk class. Instead of over-testing low-risk areas, you execute just enough test cases where it matters most. Industry studies on prioritization and early fault detection show that smarter ordering of tests leads to faster discovery of defects, giving teams earlier feedback for the same or lower effort.
For test managers, that means a defensible answer to “are we done yet?” and a clear story on coverage for the business.
Connects effort, capacity and budget
Turn “testing is a black hole” into a predictable investment.
RiskRover will estimate test effort based on risk, scope and the chosen strategy, then link that to your available capacity and budget. That’s crucial, because a well-known NIST study estimated that inadequate software-testing infrastructure costs the U.S. economy up to $59.5 billion per year, with about $22.2 billion of that potentially avoidable through better testing practices. By helping you catch more defects before release—when IBM data suggests fixes are several times more expensive after release than earlier in the lifecycle—RiskRover helps protect both your budget and your brand.
