Overview

Imagine that you are a systems analyst on the project team that is developing

an IT system for Millennia HealthCenter, as described in the business case you

saw earlier in this course. The same team is almost finished developing the

system, and is about to

start the testing phase. Before the team starts on the

testing tasks, you have been asked to create the system test plan. Your test

plan will ensure that all features within the developed solution have been

validated. The plan will also ensure that when t

he system is tested in the

future, what has been tested and all test results have been documented.

Prompt

To ensure that your test plan will test the functionality of the system in the

projects, you should refer to the activities you completed in Module Tw

o and

Module Four, as well as Project One in Module Five. Reviewing the business

case, use case diagrams, use case specifications, and system requirements

specification can help you have a better idea as to what kind of testing needs

to be prioritized.

You

r test plan should include the following components:

·

Detailed test procedures, including how each testing task will be

completed

·

Who will participate in each testing phase

·

Task dependencies within the testing phase, incl

uding when each testing

task will be completed

·

What test data will be used

This test plan will be used to check the system for readiness. After you have

developed your test plan, write a brief reflection on making ethical decisions in

the testing phase by

thoroughly answering one of the following questions:

·

If you found out that there were bugs in the system after completing

several testing tasks, what would you do?

·

If you found some small problems with the system, what would you do?

·

What are the ethical di

lemmas if you don’t complete the test plan prior

to system launch?

You can use this
