Lecture 6 - Document tesng & tracking issues
IEEE Soware Tesng Standard
●ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119 Soware Tesng Standard
●The parts:
1. Concepts & Definion
2. Test Processes
3. Test Documentaon
4. Test Techniques
5. Keyword Driven Tesng
Test Documentaon - Review
Organisaonal Test Policies
●Needed when its a larger organisaon that are developing mulple pieces of soware
●A place to devise general policies that are applied across mulple different projects
●Ensures pracces are carried out consistently throughout all development
Project Test Plans
Where you set out the plan for tesng a specific project
What should it address?
●Risks to addressed by tesng
○What are we avoiding by conducng test tesng a fixing the problems idenfied by
it?
●Tesng Strategy:
○What strategies will be used to select tests?
○Different parts of the soware may need different amounts and types of tesng
●Tesng arfacts:
○What arfaces need to be produced to conduct this tesng
○Includes code and other documentaon
●Tesng environment:
○What tools, specialised tesng soware, and hardware resources will be required to
conduct tesng?
●Personnel:
○Who will be responsible for conducng all aspects of the tesng process?
○Different types of tesng might be done by different groups of people
●Scheduling:
○When will tesng be conducted?
●Results reporng:
○How will the results of tesng be made to relevant people
●Metrics: What metric will you collect from your tesng
