Testing Lifecycle

WEB SPIDERS has a well-defined testing Lifecycle, which is applicable to all testing scenarios. The lifecycle ensures that all the relevant inputs are obtained, the planning is adequately carried out and the executions are as per plan.

In addition the results are obtained reviewed and monitored. The lifecycle also defines the interfaces into the overall Quality management processes and also the Project delivery phases.

The testing life cycle can be broadly classified into three different life cycle models depending upon the type of application and the test strategy used such as:

Application Testing Life Cycle
Automation Testing Life Cycle
Package Testing Life Cycle

Application Testing Life Cycle

This Life Cycle is used for standard applications that are built from various custom technologies and follow the normal or standard testing approach. The Application or custom-built Lifecycle and its phases is depicted below:

Test Requirements
- Requirement Specification documents
- Functional Specification documents
- Design Specification documents (use cases, etc)
- Use case Documents
- Test Trace-ability Matrix for identifying Test Coverage
Test Planning
- Test Scope, Test Environment
- Different Test phase and Test Methodologies
- Manual and Automation Testing
- Defect Mgmt, Configuration Mgmt, Risk Mgmt. Etc
- Evaluation & identification – Test, Defect tracking tools
Test Environment Setup
- Test Bed installation and configuration
- Network connectivity's
- All the Software/ tools Installation and configuration
- Coordination with Vendors and others
Test Design
- Test Traceability Matrix and Test coverage
- Test Scenarios Identification & Test Case preparation
- Test data and Test scripts preparation
- Test case reviews and Approval
- Base lining under Configuration Management
Test Automation
- Automation requirement identification
- Tool Evaluation and Identification.
- Designing or identifying Framework and scripting
- Script Integration, Review and Approval
- Base lining under Configuration Management
Test Execution and Defect Tracking
- Executing Test cases
- Testing Test Scripts
- Capture, review and analyze Test Results
- Raised the defects and tracking for its closure
Test Reports and Acceptance
- Test summary reports
- Test Metrics and process Improvements made
- Build release
- Receiving acceptance

Automation Testing life cycle

Advantages of this automated software using the above AST life cycle.

High Quality to market
Low Time to market
Reduced testing time
Consistent test procedures
Reduced QA costs
Improved testing productivity
Improved product quality

AST Requirements
- Requirement / Functional Specification documents
- Design Specification documents (use cases, etc)
- Test Traceability Matrix for identifying Test Coverage
- Functional/ Non-Functional and test data
- requirements
- Test phases to be automated and % of automation
AST Planning
- Automated Software Testing (AST) Scope
- Tool Evaluation and identification
- AST Methodologies and Framework
- Prepare and Base lining Scripting standard and
- ASTPlan
AST Environment Setup
- AST Test Bed installation and configuration
- Network connectivity's
- All the Software/ tools Licenses, Installation and
- configuration
- Coordination with Vendors and others
AST Design
- Test Script and test data preparation
- Test scripts / test data review and unit testing
- Integration Testing Test scripts and testing
- Base lining under Configuration Management
AST Execution and Defect Tracking
- Executing AST Test Suit
- Capture, review and analyze Test Results
- Defects reporting and tracking for its closure
AST Maintenance Reports and Acceptance
- AST Results and summary reports
- Test Metrics and process Improvements made
- Base lining of AST Test suits/ scripts/ test date etc for
- maintenance phase
- Getting Acceptance

Package Testing life cycle

Testing life cycle followed for all the packaged applications like Oracle, SAP, Siebel, CRM tools, Supply Chain management applications, etc are detailed in the below diagram.
