Analysis of Business Requirements

One of the most important activities in the UAT is to identify and develop test scenarios. These test scenarios are derived from the following documents:

• Project Charter

• Business Use Cases

• Process Flow Diagrams

• Business Requirements Document (BRD)

• System Requirements Specification (SRS)

Creation of UAT Plan:

The Girmiti UAT test plan outlines the strategy that will be used to verify and ensure an application meets its business requirements. It documents entry and exit criteria for UAT, test scenarios and test cases approach and timelines of testing.

Identify Test Scenarios and Test Cases:

Identifying the test scenarios with respect to high level business process and create test cases with clear test steps. Test Cases should sufficiently cover most of the UAT scenarios. Business Use cases are input for creating the test cases.

Preparation of Test Data:

It is best advisable to use live data for UAT. Data should be scrambled for privacy and security reasons. Girmiti testers are expertise and familiar with the data base flow.

Run and record the results:

Executing test cases and reporting bugs if anything. Re-testing bugs once fixed. Utilizing test management tools for execution.

Automated Acceptance Testcases:

Build strong set of Automated Acceptance Test cases which can be run for every release

Confirm Business Objectives met:

Business Analysts or Girmiti UAT Testers will confirm sign off mail the UAT testing. After sign-off the product is good to go for production.

Exit criteria for UAT:

Before moving into production, following needs to be considered:

• No critical defects open

• Business process works satisfactorily

• UAT Sign off meeting with all stakeholders

Girmiti’s User Acceptance Testing Services validate end-to-end business process, system transactions and user access, confirms the system or application is functionally fit for use and behaves as expected. Also, identifies areas where user needs are not included in the system or the needs are incorrectly specified or interpreted in the system.

Activities

• Product knowledge transfer

• UA test planning

• Executing test cases

• Reporting and documenting defect found during UAT

• Sign Off

Girmiti recognizes that the specific focus during UAT should be in terms of the exact real world usage of the application. Our UAT testing will be done in an environment that simulates the real world or production environment. The test cases are written using real world scenarios for the application. The test team develops test scenarios, and scenario-based testing is used to conduct User Acceptance Testing.

The Key Deliverables of Girmiti’s User Acceptance Testing:

• The Test Plan- Outlining the testing strategy

• The User Acceptance Test cases – Helping the team to effectively test the application

• The Test Log – A log of all the test cases executed and the actual results

• Defect Log - A log of all the defects

• User Sign Off – Customer buy-in, indicating customer finds the product delivered to their satisfaction
