Information technology users and customers understand the business, but do not know how to test software. Information systems are becoming more user-oriented. Users are expected to perform tests they have not had to perform in the past. One such task is software testing. Often when a program is placed into operation, questions surface such as: “Why were these problems not identified during user acceptance testing?” This is a client/server application: “Can we reasonably expect our users/customers to perform acceptance testing?”
This non-technical two-day seminar will demonstrate techniques needed to perform a comprehensive and complete test based on business processes. This seminar teaches users/customers how to show a business process graphically and break it into smaller pieces for testing. The course differentiates the relationship between scenarios, scripts and test cases. It defines a test plan, and it covers the test execution phase, evaluating test results and most importantly, how to avoid the pitfalls so commonly encountered. The concepts of this course are reinforced by case studies created to design a user test based upon business need.
