Test (Execution) Plans

Test Plan OrganizationNaming of test plans for agile environments:Iteration number and name and one extra test plan for endto end tests.

Test Suites

Test Suites OrganizationNaming of test suites for agile environments:Suite per user story (requirement based) and one additionaltest suite for regression tests.(query based?)(test cases are copied to the regression test suite)

Test Case SpecificationSee also on www.tmap.net: Specification Phase

Test Case Shared Steps Test Data IterationsLink test cases and requirements to provide requirement traceabilityData drive test cases with different parametersRefactor common shared steps in test cases

Test Case

Test step types

Test steps Make them descriptive Not every step is a validation step Use the step attachment

Test steps copy-past

Test Data IterationsData drive test cases with different parameters

Test Data Iterations

Test data copy-past

Shared StepsRefactor common shared steps in test casesReduce test maintenance by sharing test steps across test cases

Shared Steps Shared Step candidates?• REUSE – Many steps, reused for many test cases . Benefit: time, retyping, boring work.• EXPECTED CHANGES – for example environment variables change [URL]. Benefit: Time, test cases which need this step are updated automatically, also action recording.• PRE- CONDITIONS – bring the system under test to a certain state and execute the different verifications. Benefit: beside time, you are certain the application under test is in the same state for every test case• BACK TO INITIAL STATE - after test execution bring the environment back to the initial state for new test cases. Benefit: beside time, you are certain the application under test is always in a clean state for new test cases.

Test ExecutionTest RunnerA test that you will want to run multiple times.Different manual tests that contain common steps.Verifying a bug is fixed by using a manual test.

PRO: - Reuse scenario knowledge business user - No typing detailed test steps - Easy to parameterize1 Record scenario by business user with - Writing standards for test steps MTM on application under test. Action - MTM capabilities in step 3. (bug, codedUI, recommended test etc …) recording is captured. Most benefit during step 2 (test case writing), benefit in step 1: run once in common situation. Benefit in step 3: common MTM benefits (record playback, fast forward, parameters etc) and benefit of well written steps.2 Create test steps (with parameters) in MTM by using the action recording. CON: - Manual actions and tests. - Test steps text are technical names - Action recording (step 1) must be clean. - Unknown what is validated, during step 2, need additional knowledge. - The business user must think of the important scenarios3 Save test case and execute it by a tester The action recording during step 1 can have on application under test, by using MTM. unnecessary steps, these can be removed during the execution (1) or during the specification (2).
