Write a one-page test plan

Sara asks: “Before you start clicking, send me a one-pager. What will you test, what won't you, what scares you most, and how will we know you're done?”

Keep it short. A plan nobody reads is worthless. Bullet points are fine.

Think in risks. Where would a failure hurt users or the business most? That's where your time goes.

Use the brief. Keep the brief open; the idea buttons only get you started.
