Finally, the role of the tester is to define and establish a process to verify that the solution that is being implemented meets the requirements. The tester stakeholder will also be responsible for establishing a certain quality standard to be adhered to by the solution. The role of the tester is also referred to as the role of a quality assurance analyst.

An example of one of the responsibilities of a tester would be to write test scripts to match the business requirements to be tested using an agreed-upon test procedure.

Each business initiative requires all these roles to be present in order to be complete and well rounded. It is essential for the business analyst to consider and understand the roles of all these stakeholder types when planning the requirements approach and engagement activities.
