FAST · Framework
A technical foundation to read, structure and preserve QA facts over time.
Why a FAST · Framework ?
After observing existing practices ( FAST · Frame ), aligning them ( FAST · Align ) and transmitting durable reference points ( FAST · Support ), a need often emerges:
Having a common support to read and exploit QA facts.
FAST · Framework does not aim to replace existing tools. It acts as a reading foundation, capable of linking and exposing QA facts coming from different tools, projects and contexts.
What FAST · Framework provides
- Factual and structured reading of QA data
- Explicit links between requirements, scenarios, tests and results
- Long-term usable vision, independent of source tools
- Clear separation between observable facts and interpretations
FAST · Framework is read-only
It does not modify tools or existing processes
Key principles
- Facts-only: only QA facts are preserved
- Read-only: no write-back to source systems
- Readable traceability: links are understandable, not only technical
- Tool independence: adapts to existing environments
What is FAST · Framework used for?
- Understanding what is really tested
- Reviewing QA history of a project or product
- Supporting decisions with observable facts
- Reducing dependency on people and tools
Framework status
FAST · Framework
FAST · Framework is currently being used within a deliberately targeted scope.
This initial version aims to validate actual uses, the clarity of facts, and the relevance of the links
provided, before any wider rollout.
The framework evolves based on field feedback, and not a commercial roadmap.
FAST-QA positioning
FAST · Framework is a core building block of the FAST-QA ecosystem, supporting audit, alignment and knowledge transmission.
It replaces no tool, it integrates into existing environments.
