Hi,

Generally, in testing time development team passes builds with unique numbers to testing people. All these builds are placed in a secured folder.We can also place our Design specifications, Test cases documents, bug reports, review reports, specs and everything which are related to our project.

For this we'll use a tool which is called as version control tool or configuration management system. For every person there will be an id which is created by PM. We have to check out the documents whenever we want to make any modifications or to add any information to it. after that we'll save it and we'll check in into version control system. Our account is accessed only by ourself and PM and TL.

I think u got it.

if u need anything about it just send a mail to dileepkumar.g@gmail.com

cheers  bye

Version control systems keep track of multiple versions of a source file. They provide a more powerful alternative to keeping backup files Each time content is changed and checked back into a content management system, a copy of the content is saved and its identifier (version number) is incremented to indicate its difference from the previous copy.The process by which the contents of each revision of software, hardware, or documentation are accounted for.
