Testing is a process rather than a single activity. This process starts from test planning then designing test cases, preparing for execution and evaluating status till the test closure.

1. Test Process

2. Test Process?
In IT industries 99.9% projects are done
with Planning. In Software Testing, we
required following Test Process. Suppose you
are a tester and team lead gave you an
application to test. There is difficulty to test
hole application without planning. You will
get some error but this is not a right way to
test application.

3. The Fundamental of Test
Process are :
○ Test Planning and Control
○ Test Analysis and Design
○ Test implementation and execution
○ Evaluating exit criteria and
Reporting
○ Test closure activities

4. Test Planning and Control
Test Planning is a Fundamental Test Process which
defining the objective and goal of the testing process.
Using requirement specification test plan will make
more detailed. It is the continuous process and
performed in all life cycles.
➢ Deciding the scope and risk of testing
➢ Deciding the overall approach of testing
➢ Scheduling test analysis and design process
➢ Assigning resources to different activities

5. Test Analysis and Design
Test Analysis and Design is a Fundamental
Test Process which creating test conditions
& test cases. In this process performed
major tasks like reviewing the test basis,
identifying the test conditions based on
analysis of test items, writing test cases,
identifying necessary test data to support
the test conditions and test cases, Designing
the test environment.

6. Test implementation and
execution
Test implementation and execution is a Fundamental
Test Process in which actual work is done. In this process
executing test cases with test data.
➢ Creating test suites from test executions
➢ Checking test environments, updating traceability
between test basis and test cases
➢ Executing test procedures using test execution tools
➢ Checking actual result with expected results
➢ Reporting errors & creating Incident reports

7. Evaluating exit criteria
and Reporting
Evaluating exit criteria is a process defining
when to stop testing. It depends on the
coverage of code, functionality or risk.
Basically, it also depends on business risk,
cost and time.

8. Test closure activities
Test closure activities are the last process in the
fundamental test process. In this process collect
data from completed test process and test wares.
➢ Ensure that deliverable has been delivered or
not
➢ Closing incident report
➢ Documenting all the systems
➢ Archiving all the testware, test environment
and infrastructure.
