Testing

Testing without Test Cases are like as Tree without leaves........ Test cases are the first most important need to perform testing on any application.

Is it required to have Test Cases? So the answer is YES because without test cases the testing is like roaming in the jungle without knowing where is the path.

Initiation Notes of the application, we have some high level documents from where we derived "Test Cases", this high level document can be FRS, DRD, SRS, WireFrame, Style Guide etc.

"As per IEEE Standard 829-1983: Documentation specifying inputs, predicted results, and a set of execution conditions for a test item.”

Test Cases comprises of three utmost requirement an input, event and expected outcome, to verify the flow of that particular feature is working correctly or not.

Test cases should be strictly written by a team members, who have some domain knowledge and far better options is that who understands the function being tested. It should be peer reviews by some senior QC members.

Written test cases are the Validation process, as while creating test cases we validate each & every requirements

Application Lifecycle Management

Application Lifecycle Management Lifecycle the word means “Series of stages through which something passes during its lifetime.” Application lifecycle is similar to giving birth to a young one as per the God’s management. Creating an application is not a big task, but adding the word Management in that Application  Lifecycle is adding a process of distributing with or governing things or people.  When Process comes in a picture, we bound to work according to that, which give the  picture of Application Lifecycle Management. Accumulation process is not that you are bound to move in that particular line only, but it  means you are moving in the correct direction which will give success and 99.9%  assurance that the Project on which you have implemented is having a correct planning,   great controlling, and using the resources in an organized behavior. Application Lifecycle Management is controlling of a software application from planning...

What do we mean by Usability?

Many definitions of usability are available, few of them are: 1) In simple words it is "The ease of use". 2) It is the amount of effort required in learning, operating, preparing inputs, and interpreting the outputs of an application. 3) Technical definition prescribed in ISO 9241-11 is: "The extent to which a product can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with Effectiveness, Efficiency and Satisfaction, in a specified Context of use".  This testing is also called as 'Testing for User-Friendliness'. This testing is done if User Interface of the application stands an important consideration and needs to be specific for the specific type of user. Usability testing is the process of working with end-users directly and indirectly to assess how the user perceives a software package and how they interact with it.    This process will uncover areas of difficulty for users as well as areas of strength. Usability "means...

Project Estimation Template

  Read Me All white cells are editable in the estimation template Estimation Summary 1 In this sheet, mention the basic project information. 2 This sheet gives the amount of effort estimated for each phase, based on the effort distribution. 3 ‘Engineering effort’ is the total amount of effort estimated for the project 4 Total Size (complexity Point) is the calculated value of the complex points or the size of the work that has to be performed. 5 ‘Project Management Effort’ is the percentage of Engineering Effort that will be required for project management. 6 ‘Total Effort (Hours)’ is the sum of ‘Engineering Effort’ and ‘Project Management Effort’ 7 ‘Contingency %’ is the percentage of total effort that counts for an incidental expense 8 ‘Grand Total Effort (Hours)’ is the sum of ‘Total Effort (Hours)’ and ‘‘Contingency %’’ 9 ‘Assumptions’ and Risks: List all the assumptions and risks related to estimation Estimation Criteria 1 Mention the criteria for various complexities i.e. Low...
