Test Planning
Careful and considered upfront test planning is essential for most projects.
We can provide Test Plans based on the IEEE829 standard, taking into consideration:
- Testable items
- Risks
- Test Features
- Test Approach and strategy
- Pass and Fail criteria
- Deliverables
- Environments
- Schedule
- Responsibilities.
Exploratory
A popular misconception of exploratory testing is that it should only be used for small projects and where budgets are tight.
That’s not strictly true. Exploratory testing is a valuable exercise in itself, and complements a scripted approach.
While it’s largely undocumented, testers use their experience to apply a structured schedule to targeting areas of an application, and consider the following focus areas:
- End user’s perspective
- Test-to-break
- Key user journeys
- User experience
- Positive and negative user flows
- Disruptive tests
- Edge case testing
- Out-of-the-box thinking.
Test Scripts
Our test team has years of experience in designing, writing and executing test scripts.
This is a documented approach to manual testing where test suites are generated containing test cases addressing each of the requirements of a piece of software.
Test cases usually fall into one of the following categories:
- Smoke tests
- Functional tests
- Non-functional tests
- Compatibility checks
- User Journeys.
Measurable & Repeatable
A scripted approach ensures the test process is:
- Measurable
- Traceable
- Repeatable.
The team at Zoonou have created test script documentation that intelligently generates metrics and stats for your project to allow you to gain a useful snapshot of the stability of your application when under test.
