Section Marks
Testing Strategy 2
  Describe in general terms how you are going to test the system.

 

  
Test plan/data 4
  Devise a test plan, giving test data for each of your test runs.

Make sure you include normal data, extreme data, invalid data, and null data.

State what the expected results for each test will be.

 

  
Actual results 14
  Provide evidence in the form of screen shots or printed output of each of your tests - This is your chance to show off what your program looks like!

Discuss the results of each test.

If any tests fail - fix the program, explaining what changes you have made, and run the test again.

 

  
HINT : You may have a number of very similar tests. You do not need to provide evidence for all of them if they are fairly trivial - just document the results of each one.

Number each test in your test plan, and make sure each test is clearly numbered and matches the test plan.
