Apart from all the traditional Testing practices like
writing testcases, reporting and monitoring those, Software
testers are having some more major responsibilities:

1) Analyze and identify the flaws/mismatches in the
requirements.
2) Confirm the best Usability of the application.
3) Identify the main integration points in the appilcation
across different modules, before the starting of the actual

MANAGERS/PROCESS DRIVERS.
