Testing and Deployment

Testing and Deployment 

Now that you have completed the design review, and your system is built. It will be time to verify that all is functioning as expected.

Develop a checklist for testing the Application before it is deployed into Production. 

The checklist should include but not be limited to the following:

• Use a cross-section of users who can verify that the functionalities are available based on the system requirements  
• Verify that accessibility is available based on design requirements  
• Data migration process functionality if that is a part of the design process 

Develop a plan and time frame for production deployment.

This must include the following:

• System installation and configuration  
• Data migration schedule  
• Schedule of system downtime  
• Cross-section of users for testing immediately after the cut-over  
• Fallback plan if planned cutover does not succeed
