Q: How do you create a test plan/design?
A: Test scenarios and/or cases are prepared by reviewing functional requirements of the release and preparing logical groups of functions that can be further broken into test procedures. Test procedures define test conditions, data to be used for testing and expected results, including database updates, file outputs, report results. Generally speaking...[Continued on next page...]
- Test cases and scenarios are designed to represent both typical and unusual situations that may occur in the application.
- Test engineers define unit test requirements and unit test cases. Test engineers also execute unit test cases.
- It is the test team that, with assistance of developers and clients, develops test cases and scenarios for integration and system testing.
- Test scenarios are executed through the use of test procedures or scripts.
- Test procedures or scripts define a series of steps necessary to perform one or more test scenarios.
- Test procedures or scripts include the specific data that will be used for testing the process or transaction.
- Test procedures or scripts may cover multiple test scenarios.
- Test scripts are mapped back to the requirements and traceability matrices are used to ensure each test is within scope.
