Fundamental Test Process

This document describes the fundamental test process, which includes test planning, analysis and design, implementation and execution, evaluation of exit criteria and reporting, and test closure activities. It discusses the main tasks for each part of the test process, including determining test scope and objectives, designing test cases, developing and prioritizing test cases, creating test data, and executing tests. The document also introduces some common testing terms.

This document describes the fundamental test process, which includes test planning, analysis and design, implementation and execution, evaluating exit criteria and reporting, and test closure activities. It provides details on the main tasks for each part of the test process, such as determining test scope and objectives, designing test cases, executing tests, assessing if testing goals have been met, and finalizing and archiving test materials for future use. The overall process aims to systematically test software through a planned sequence of activities to uncover defects and ensure quality.

The document describes the fundamental test process, which consists of five main activities: 1) Test planning and control involves determining test objectives, approach, resources, and exit criteria. 2) Test analysis and design takes the test objectives and develops test conditions, cases, and procedures. 3) Test implementation and execution develops testware, executes test cases, and logs results. 4) Evaluating exit criteria assesses if testing is complete based on criteria like coverage. 5) Test closure activities include resolving issues, archiving testware, and evaluating lessons learned.

Test planning involves prescribing the scope, approach, resources, and schedule for testing activities. It helps identify items and features to be tested as well as risk items. Test planning should occur early in the project lifecycle to note any risk factors that could jeopardize testing and include a testing schedule. The purpose is to help those outside the test group understand how and why product validation will take place.

In this section, we will describe the fundamental test process and activities. These start with test planning and continue through to test closure. For each part of the test process, we'll discuss the main tasks of each test activity. backlink: http://sif.uin-suska.ac.id/ http://fst.uin-suska.ac.id/ http://www.uin-suska.ac.id/

The fundamental software testing process involves 6 steps: 1) Planning and control to define the test strategy and plan, 2) Analysis and design to create logical test cases, 3) Implementation and execution to implement concrete test cases and execute testing according to priorities, 4) Evaluation of test exit criteria to determine when to stop testing based on metrics like defect detection percentage, 5) Reporting to communicate results to stakeholders, and 6) Post testing activities to analyze lessons learned and improve future testing. The process is iterative with several test cycles planned to fully test the software.

The document discusses different classes of software testing tools, including test management tools, test specification tools, tools for static and dynamic testing, and tools for non-functional testing. It provides examples for each class. The document also discusses best practices for selecting, introducing, and ensuring successful adoption of test tools, including performing a cost-benefit analysis, establishing processes for tool integration and usage, and providing user training and support.

The document outlines a test plan, which includes goals and objectives of testing, the scope of what will and will not be tested, and a test schedule. It also describes test deliverables and responsibilities of development team members. The test plan is a formal document that describes the scope, objectives, approach, resources, tools, risks, defects, criteria, measurements, reporting, and schedules for testing a system or software.

This document describes the fundamental test process, which includes test planning and control, analysis and design, implementation and execution, evaluating exit criteria and reporting, and test closure activities. It discusses the main tasks for each part of the test process, including determining test scope and objectives, developing a test approach and schedule, designing test cases, prioritizing and implementing test cases, executing tests, and evaluating whether exit criteria are met. The goal is to provide a structured approach to testing at all levels from component to system testing.

This document discusses testing principles and analogizes software testing to driving tests. It states that testing should start early in the development lifecycle and include both static and dynamic testing. Tests need to be regularly reviewed and revised to avoid the "pesticide paradox" where tests become outdated. Testing can find defects but cannot prove their absence. Fixing defects does not guarantee user acceptance if requirements are not met.

This document provides an overview of several test process improvement frameworks: - The Test Maturity Model (TMM) uses five staged levels to measure test process maturity and suit regulatory environments. - Test Process Improvement (TPI) allows for asynchronous improvements across four process cornerstones and twenty processes at four levels. - Critical Testing Processes (CTP) focuses on continuously improving critical, high-impact testing processes. - The Systematic Test and Evaluation Process (STEP) assesses planning, implementation, and measurement of testing through qualitative and quantitative metrics.
