Senior Design – Acceptance Test Plan Review—an Example 1. INTRODUCTION Background: This document provide the plan for completing the testing activities required for the Acceptance Test Plan of VODKA . VODKA is a tool to manage the financial accounts of student organizations within a school or university It is financial accounts of student organizations within a school or university. It is described in greater detail in the Software Requirements Specification for VODKA. References: Software Requirements Specification for VODKA q p • Drexel University

The person in charge of all the testers • Project Leader - The person in charge of the whole project. • Client's Representatives - Client's Representatives are people who overlook • the Acceptance Test Plan execution on behalf of the customers th A t T t Pl ti b h lf f th t Software Requirements Specification - A Software Requirements • Specification is a document which describes the behavior of a system. Functional Requirements - Functional Requirements define the internal • workings of the software. Unit Tests - A procedure in the software to validate that individual modules p • and other units of source code are working properly. Drexel University

Senior Design – Acceptance Test Plan Review—an Example 2. TEST APPROACH AND CONSTRAINTS Introduction This section describes the overall approach This section describes the overall approach, particular techniques and particular techniques and testing tools which will be used during the Acceptance Test Plan of the VODKA and any constraints that may apply. Test Objectives The Acceptance Test Plan process will prompt the client to evaluate VODKA and verify whether it performs in accordance with the client's requirements, listed in the Software Requirements Specification. . 6 Drexel University

Senior Design – Acceptance Test Plan Review 2. TEST APPROACH AND CONSTRAINTS Test Structure The Acceptance Test Plan will consist of a subset of test cases and methods The Acceptance Test Plan will consist of a subset of test cases and methods, previously utilized in the Unit Tests, Integration Test and System Test conducted on the VODKA . The test cases will be carefully selected and agreed upon by both the developer and the client and will allow for the agreed upon by both the developer and the client, and will allow for the most adequate verification of the functional requirements of the VODKA , as listed in the Software Requirements Document, without the extensiveness of the full-scale System Test. of the full scale System Test. It is essential that all appropriate Unit Tests, Integration Test and the System Test were successfully performed for VODKA prior to the Acceptance Test Test were successfully performed for VODKA prior to the Acceptance Test Plan and their results were reported and presented to the client. . 7 Drexel University

TEST ASSUMPTIONS AND EXCLUSIONS Introduction This section provides greater details about what issues and features of VODKA will be covered by Acceptance Test Plan process, and what issues and features of VODKA will d b A T Pl d h i d f f VODKA ill not be covered A Assumptions ti It is assumed that all issues covered by the Acceptance Test Plan were also previously addressed by the Unit Tests, Integration Test and System Test of VODKA . The Acceptance Test Plan will cover: The functional requirements of the system listed in the Software Requirements S Specification ifi ti Usability of the system Consistency of the user related system documentation Drexel University

ENRTY AND EXIT CRITERIA Introduction This section lists the criteria which must be satisfied in order for the Acceptance Test Plan This section lists the criteria which must be satisfied in order for the Acceptance Test Plan to begin, as well as the criteria which must be satisfied in order for the Acceptance Test Plan to stop. Entry Criteria Entry Criteria The Acceptance Test Plan can be initiated after the following preconditions are met: VODKA has successfully undergone Unit Tests, Integration Test and System Test. The testing environment which satisfies the System Requirements of Software The testing environment which satisfies the System Requirements of Software Requirements Specification has been setup and inspected by the client's representative A copy of the latest version of the Software Requirements Specification has been received py q p A copy of the latest version of the user-related documentation has been received The latest released version of VODKA has been appropriately resourced. A consent of the Project Leader has been obtained. A consent of the Project Leader has been obtained. A consent of the Client has been obtained. A consent of the Test Team Leader has been obtained.

Senior Design – Acceptance Test Pl Plan Review R i 4. ENRTY AND EXIT CRITERIA Exit Criteria Exit Criteria The Acceptance Test Plan should be halted after either of the following: All Priority 1 requirements were tested without any deviation from expected behavior. (Success) At least one Priority 1 requirement deviated from the documented specification. (Failure) By mutual agreement between Client's Representative and the Tester, in which both parties' supervisors should be notified and the Acceptance Test Plan should be rescheduled for a later date. (Failure) Drexel University
