Testing
has emerged as an important discipline in the SDLC.
It has its own cycle in parallel with the development
cycle of any software product. Just as all software
products goes through a design stage, so the testing
of the product must go through a test design phase.
How to identify the test requirements based
on scope, schedule and effectiveness in terms of coverage,
is a major task in the test cycle for any product.
Products requirements are a a subset of a universal
set of testing requirements. The task of system test
is to identify this universal set.
There
are a number of design techniques, which mainly address
test design at the unit test and integration test phases.
There were not many that addressed the need to test
a product at a purely system level. On a pilot basis,
some well known engineering design techniques were used
in test design for some product releases at Novell.
The results of which have been very encouraging and
so are being actively used in test design. As a result,
it is now easier for system test engineers to
identify the universal set for system testing and prioritize
tests accordingly (as low, medium, high). Customer
impact can also be analysed using these techniques.
This
tutorial intends to share with the audience
the usage of some well known design techniques at system
test level. These are already being used in
many engineering disciplines. The concepts have been
used (tuned) for system testing at Novell.
The tutorial will include some generic case studies
for each of the design methodologies & will also
indicate the learnings when using each of the methods.
Benefit
to the Audience
For every methodology this tutorial will provide the
following -
- What is the
methodology ?
- How it is
used in test design ?
- What kind of
projects can use this methodology?
- Case study
with examples.
- How the method
is useful in making release decisions ?
- How the method
helps in doing risk based testing ?
