Good understanding of customer expectations is vital to effective testing
To test effectively and estimate correctly, a good understanding of the expectations of intended software/application is very important. The act of understanding is a high maturity skill requiring multiple skills, with domain knowledge seen as a critical enabler to good understanding. Good documentation is a key ingredient; in reality however, the available documentation of requirements/specifications may lack the details and(or) may be out of sync with the actual software/system. The test staff are expected to come up with good questions and clarify the missing elements and understand the intended behaviors. This is easier said than done, as deep domain knowledge is typically a scarce commodity.
