- Access to Project and assigned tasks.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Centralized Task Management
Atarim provides a centralized hub for tracking all feedback and tasks across projects.
Why It’s Important: Centralized task management allows QA engineers to quickly access, filter, and prioritize their responsibilities, improving efficiency.
Instructions:
- Access all feedback through the Inbox or Boards screens.
- Use filters to sort tasks by project, status, priority, or assignee.
- Focus on tasks assigned to QA or those marked as critical for immediate attention.
Example Use Case: A QA engineer filters tasks to view all “High Priority” issues in a specific project, ensuring critical bugs are addressed first.

Tip: Apply filter to list tasks that needs quick attention.
2. Utilize Visual Feedback
Leverage Atarim’s Visual Collaboration Tools to understand feedback directly on websites or designs.
Why It’s Important: Visual feedback includes automated screenshots and technical deatils like browser type, screen resolution, and URLs, providing essential context for QA.
Instructions:
- Click on a feedback point to view comments and technical details associated with it.
- Compare screenshots with the live environment to verify the issue.
Example Use Case: A QA engineer reviews a reported issue on a webpage where the technical detail highlights the browser causing the bug.


Tip: Use the tech info to replicate issues in your testing environment accurately.
3. Real-Time Email Notifications
Stay updated with notifications for task changes and new feedback.
Why It’s Important: Real-time updates help QA engineers respond promptly to new issues or task updates.
Instructions:
- Enable notifications for new comments, status changes, and updates in your project settings.
- Use email or in-app alerts to stay informed about critical changes.
Example Use Case: A QA engineer receives a notification when a task’s priority is updated to “Critical” and begins testing immediately.


Tip: Customize notification preferences to focus on the most relevant updates.
4. Task Prioritization
Prioritize tasks based on urgency and relevance using Atarim’s tagging and priority features.
Why It’s Important: Prioritizing tasks ensures critical bugs are resolved quickly and minor issues don’t delay progress.
Instructions:
- Use the task menu to assign priorities like Critical, High, or Low.
- Add tags like “Responsive Testing” or “Client Blocker” for further categorization.
Example Use Case: A QA engineer tags tasks requiring responsive testing and sets them to “High Priority” for immediate review.

Tip: Regularly review priorities to ensure the workload reflects project timelines and goals.
5. Progress Monitoring with Boards
Track the progression of tasks using Kanban-style boards.
Why It’s Important: Boards provide a visual overview of task statuses, helping QA engineers monitor progress and manage workflows efficiently.
Instructions:
- Use the Kanban Board to move tasks through stages like Open, In Progress, Pending Review, and Complete.
- Drag and drop tasks to update their status in real-time.
Example Use Case: A QA engineer moves a task to “Pending Review” after verifying the reported issue is resolved.

Tip: Group tasks by assignee or status on the board for better visibility into team workflows.
6. Test Responsively Across Devices
Use the Responsive View to test and track feedback across different devices and screen sizes.
Why It’s Important: Ensuring functionality across devices helps maintain a consistent user experience.
Instructions:
- Switch between desktop, tablet, and mobile views using the responsive testing tool.
- Test reported issues on different devices to validate fixes.
Example Use Case: A QA engineer uses the responsive view to verify a design fix on both mobile and desktop layouts.

Tip: Capture the screenshot of the location and add it in task itself as comments for reference to suggest the further change.
