Lazový MichalAbstract. The management of a team in software development requires extensive effort from project managers. Especially, when the project is spread across multiple geographic regions. The usage of international teams becomes a trend and therefore a great effort is paid to develop tools to alleviate problems which occurs with collaboration and communication in these teams. Generally, these projects are large-scale, where the aforementioned problems are even more significant and their solution is more difficult. The essay deals with the way how to support this kind of development and also the question, how to improve effectiveness of international teams. Software development in international teams causes several complications, which may result in project failure, degradation of product quality, or cost increment of realization.Pomothy AdamAbstract. Nowadays, testers are usually considered to be temporary one-shot employees. They are given only test scripts and rules, how to report found errors and they are supposed to do their jobs. However, testers are equivalent to a development team. They have the same goal – to deliver a high quality product to a customer. The communication is crucial for these two teams. However, if new testers are hired for every project, they have no relationship to developers and they are also in brand new environment. As a result, their communication is too formal and inefficient. That is the reason, why it is important to have a static team of testers as it is in case of developers. Good relationships or friendships result in much better cooperation. To achieve as effective communication as possible, it is also important to choose team leaders of both teams (it is common in case of developers, but not in case of testers). Team leaders coordinate other members of team, they are aware of current tasks and they communicate with external world in the name of whole team.
