Overview

Purpose

Detail the purpose of this document. For example:

  • The test scope, focus areas and objectives
  • The test responsibilities
  • The test strategy for the levels and types of test for this release
  • The entry and exit criteria
  • The basis of the test estimates
  • Any risks, issues, assumptions and test dependencies
  • The test schedule and major milestones
  • The test deliverables

Scope

This wiki details the testing that will be performed by the project team for the <project name> project. It defines the overall testing requirements and provides an integrated view of the project test activities. Its purpose is to document:

  • What will be tested
  • How testing will be performed

Ownership

What resources are needed, and when (developers, QA, PMs working on the feature)

Testing summary

Scope of Testing

In Scope

Detail what is in scope from a testing perspective for the project team.

Out of Scope

Detail what is out of scope from a testing perspective for the project team. Note: if usability testing is not in the scope of testing feature.

Test Strategy

Risk Assessment and Coverage

ID Description / Threat Description Covered by Test Objective Magnitude Probability Priority Impact Score
RAC-1 Risk description 1 TO-1 2-Moderate 1-Unlikely 3-High 6
RAC-2 Risk description 2 TO-1 3-High 3-Almost Certain 3-High 27
RAC-3 Risk description 3 TO-2 2-Moderate 2-Possible 3-High 12

Values:

  • Magnitude: 1- Low , 2-Moderate, 3-High
  • Probability: 1-Unlikely, 2-Possible, 3-Almost Certain
  • Priority: 1 - Low, 2-Medium, 3-High

Impact Score Breakdown:

  • An impact value of 1, 2, 3, 4 would describe an area which although should be covered there aren't expected any discoveries of critical issues.
  • An impact value of 6, 8, 9, 12 would describe an area in which we expect to find issues but those issues are not expected to be critical.
  • An impact value of 18 or 27 would describe an area on which it is likely to find issues and those issues to be critical or blockers.

Test Objectives

This section details the progression test objectives that will be covered. Please note that this is at a high level. For large projects, a suite of test cases would be created which would reference directly back to this master. This could be documented in bullet form or in a table similar to the one below.

Ref Function Test Objective Evaluation Criteria Test Type RAC Owners
1 Name of the feature or sub-function being tested The objective the test is trying to demonstrate The criteria that will be evaluated to demonstrate the test is successful Manual/ Automation/ Regression/ Performance/ Usability/ Security/ Telemetry RAC-1, RAC-2, RAC-3 Eng Team
2 Repeat for each feature/sub-function
