I. Introduction
This serves as the plan for testing all software artifacts as well as the reporting of test results.
Description
Expected Results
Actual Results
Where:
Test ID is a unique identifier for the test case. The unique identifier should relate back to the
particular requirement the test case is verifying. For example, if your naming scheme for
requirements is numbers, test cases for requirement 3 could have test IDs 3.1, 3.2, etc. Acceptance
test cases must end the Test ID with a *.
Description should clearly document the steps that need to be done in order to run the test case.
Write the description specifically, such that any team member can run the test case, even if the
author of the test case is not present.
Expected results is a statement of what should happen when the test case is run.
Actual results are an indication of whether the test case is currently passing or failing when it is
run. The actual results could be recorded simply as Pass or Fail. However, it is also helpful
to describe what happened in cases where a test case fails.
Ultimately, your customer should agree to the test case. When test cases are written so specifically, often
requirements understanding is enhanced.
