ITPEC IP October 2022 Question 49
It has been decided that a department will participate in the test of a newly developed business system as the user department. Which of the following is an appropriate matter that should be confirmed by the user department?
Explanation
Business requirements are satisfied — a user department takes part in testing to confirm that the system supports its business, which only it can judge.
The user department knows the real work: the business rules, the daily procedures, the reports it needs. In the test it runs business scenarios and confirms that the system meets the business requirements it asked for. The technical checks belong to the developers and the operators.
Answer (a)
Why not others:
- •(b) — checking each program against its program specification is the unit test, done by the developers
- •(c) — monitoring the network by a predetermined procedure is a task of the operations department
- •(d) — checking the data exchanged between programs against the design document is the integration test, done by the developers
Key rule: Each party tests against what it defined: users against the business requirements, developers against the specifications and design documents.
