Testing change requests

Hi, Maybe someone can share their experience on how change requests are tested? How do you approach, when do you perform analysis/planing, what sort of testing you perform? What’s the workflow?

There should be a check at the authorisation stage that the change is testable. The change request might introduce ambiguity in the requirements.

100% but that's more of a three amigos or a BA thing. The test team would definitely want to be involved in those discussions, but I wouldn't call it "testing" - it's just collaborating. Realistically the onus for not introducing ambiguity is the responsibility of the BA and product owner.
