# How to set up Roles & Permissions in QA Touch?

This blog guides users on how to set up roles and permissions for their team members in QA Touch.

## The Importance of Setting up Roles and Permissions

Any IT firm or an organization with a technical team has a combination of Team Leads, Managers, Senior Testers & Testers. As such, the user roles & permissions for the Test Management tool depends on the hierarchy. It’s a known fact that a good test case and team management heavily relies on security, and for these reasons, the Team Leads and Managers hold complete access while the testers are given a restricted access.
