1 Day Tutorial
Verification and Validation – V and V – is not
something a professional tester does only at the end. It is part of each
phase of development and deployment. (Or, at the least, it should be!) In
this course, you learn test design techniques that can be used at each phase
of development and test. We cover Static Test Design (from Requirements to
Scenarios, Functional Design and Coding). And we explore Dynamic Test Design
(from Unit Testing to Module Integration, System Test, User Acceptance and
Beta Test). Practical examples are provided for each technique.
Students Learn
- Black Box (Static), Clear Box (Dynamic) and Gray
Box (Dynamic) Test Design techniques
- How and Why you should do V and V
(verification, validation) at each phase of development and test
cycle
- Review of Software Testing Terms, Definitions
- Techniques
- Modeling
- All Pairs and Matrix Data Reductions
- Logic Flow Diagrams, Basis Paths
Outline
- Introduction to Test Case Design Techniques
- Test Lifecycle, Verification and Validation to
support Development Model
- Review Software Testing Terminology
- Positive and Negative Testing
- Static and Dynamic Testing
- Testing Levels; Starting with Requirements
- Black Box, Clear Box, Gray Box Methods and
Techniques
- Test Case Design Techniques
- Black Box Techniques – Static Test Design
- Turn Requirements into Scenarios (Decision
Tables: How many possible combinations exist? Modeling Activity:
Diagrams and Use Cases)
- From Functional Design to Detailed Design to
Coding
- Data Design Techniques for Test Cases
(Boundary Value Analysis, Equivalence Class Partitioning, All Pairs
Reductions, Matrix Data Reductions)
- Clear and Gray Box Techniques – Dynamic Test
Design
- Logic Flow Diagrams and Basis Paths
- Unit and Module Integration Testing; Statement and
Branch Coverage
104W is available as an add-on workshop when taken
with Test Case Design Techniques for Manual and Automated Testing.
Purpose
Provide mentoring as students apply new
techniques to their real world problems
Students Gain
- Hands-on experience applying the test scenario
design techniques and the test case design techniques
- Students exercise their in-house standards and
guidelines; students identify difficulties
- Practice developing automation frameworks that
work for you
- Practice Test Case Template Design and Development
- Practice Bug Reporting and Measuring techniques
Exercises
- Practice using:
- Decision Tables to Estimate All Possible
Combinations
- Boundary Value Analysis
- Equivalence Class Partitioning
- Test Case Template
- Test Case Template Design and Development for each
data design technique in practice exercises
- Template, Exercises: Black Box and Clear or Gray
Box data design. Manual/Automated Testing
- Automation framework evaluation
Any of the following materials can be used to
customize exercises and test case templates for your enterprise. Provide
samples, specs or data -- with non-disclosure statements -- in advance of an
onsite training date:
- Sample data input screen(s) shots
- Sample file or data definitions (screen shot,
Excel spreadsheet, or text file)
- Sample Schema, or data sets (screen shot, Excel
spreadsheet, or text file)
- The parent requirements, specifications and/or
change requests, business rule(s), Use Cases, functional flow or process
flows
