Study Notes
Maintenance Category for Enhanced Testing
-
This category of maintenance focuses on adjusting existing infrastructure or processes to accommodate new testing scenarios or more sophisticated test automation techniques arising from the introduction of a new System Under Test (SUT).
-
The primary objective is to enhance the testing capabilities rather than fixing defects or improving performance.
-
Key activities often involve modifying test scripts, designing new test cases to cover the functionality of the new SUT, identifying and implementing necessary hardware or software upgrades, training personnel on new testing processes as well as maintaining documentation.
Specific Maintenance Activities
-
Test Script Modification: Adapting existing test scripts to incorporate functionalities of the new System Under Test (SUT) or use new test data. This may include modifying test data to match the SUT.
-
New Test Case Design: Crafting new, comprehensive test cases tailored to the specific features and functionalities of the new SUT. These cases should address different aspects from the previously tested systems.
-
Test Automation Framework Enhancement: Expanding or modifying the test automation framework to support new test types and incorporate new tools or technologies for test execution and reporting. This means adapting existing tools and creating new ones.
-
Hardware/Software Upgrades: Upgrading existing hardware and/or implementing supplementary software applications that improve efficiency of new test executions. This applies to testing tools, hardware needed for the new test cases, or even supporting software.
-
Infrastructure Modifications (e.g., test environment): Adjusting test environments to accommodate the new SUT's needs. This might involve acquiring new or upgraded hardware like simulated environments or emulators.
-
Personnel Training: Educating the testing team on any new procedures, tools, or techniques required to deal with the new SUT and maintain the quality of testing. This also includes training on documentation updates.
-
Documentation Updates: Keeping all test-related documentation thoroughly updated with information concerning the new SUT and the changes made to accommodate its specific needs, including new test scripts, cases and automation frameworks. This implies updating technical documentation like procedure guides.
