Study Notes
Software Testing - Test Cases
- Software testing involves a set of actions performed on a system to verify if it meets the required software requirements and functions correctly.
- The purpose of testing is to determine if system features perform as expected, confirming compliance with standards, guidelines, and customer requirements.
Test Plan vs. Test Case
- Test Plan: A high-level document for the entire project, designed for broad overview by many people. It outlines the testing schedule, personnel, scope, and potential risks.
- Test Case: Detailed, low-level instructions for individual tests, specifying how each test should be conducted.
Test Case Types
- Functionality test cases
- Unit test cases
- Performance test cases
- Database test cases
- User interface test cases
- Integration test cases
- Security test cases
- Usability test cases
Test Case Information
- Test cases include everything needed for execution, including:
- Test environment (optional)
- Test data
- Expected outcomes
- Test status
Test Case Content
- A unique test case identifier
- A brief description of the test's purpose
- Any assumptions or preconditions required before execution
- Test data required to execute the test
- Steps to conduct the test
- Expected results
- Actual results obtained during the test
- Whether the test passed or failed
