One obstacle that occurred during a recent project was when several issues were found after the testing phase of the project was completed. This issues were things that should have been identified before the conclusion of the testing phase. Because of this obstacle we had to go back and address the issues and re-test those issues again before moving forward with the project. This caused a little bit of concern and frustration among my team members, but was not a huge issue because we did have enough time to get back on schedule after addressing this issue, so we didn’t fall too much off schedule. I think the planning of the schedule was not a problem as we did have some time to deal with this obstacle, but more extensive testing would have prevented this issue from arising. More test cases, more time for testing, and more test runs could have detected some of this issues before testing was complete.
