2. Clients To ensure they can properly interact with the system IT Staff To ensure all technical and program functions are working properly Management Who Should Help in Testing?
3. All transactions should be testes Extract deductions Transfer Funds Apply Deductions Focus on Security Transactions to be Tested
4. Testing should be done throughout project development More thorough testing should be performed near the end of development Should continue for a short period after implementation to remove any missed errors When to Test
5. What is your overall opinion of the new ESIP system? Do you see any advantages the new system has when compared to the old? Disadvantages? Has the new system made your job easier, harder, or had no impact? How so? Does the new system lack in any areas that you have noticed? Questioner
6. More risk than other changeover methods Detecting minor errors is more difficult Cannot revert to the old system as a back-up Disadvantages of Cutover
7. Parallel Operation Old and new systems operate full for a specified period Data input into both systems, output is compared between systems When clients, management, and IT are satisfied that the new system operates correctly, the old system is terminated Other Methods
8. Pilot Operation Implement the complete new system at a selected location of the company The group that uses the new system first is called the pilot site The old system continues to operate for the entire organization, including pilot site After the system proves successful at the pilot site, it is implemented in the rest of the organization it is implemented in the rest of the organization. Other Methods
9. Pilot operation Best way to guard against total system failure Less risky than Changeover Allows for more accurate post implementation testing My Recommendation
