A method and system for assessing the project testing practices of an organization is provided. In one embodiment, a consultant gathers current testing practices documentation and procedures for the project and then conducts an interview of at least one project team member utilizing templates and procedures provided by a testing practices assessment toolkit. The consultant then enters the results of the interview and the information obtained from the testing practices documentation and procedures into the toolkit. The toolkit then calculates maturity scores for a select number of key focal areas using formulas based on the industry to which the project belongs. The consultant then analyzes the current situation in the select number of key focal areas against industry best practices using the maturity scores calculated by the toolkit as an aid. The consultant then determines recommendations for the organization that would improve the testing practices of the organization.
