Abstract

Software QA reviews and software testing are two most important phases in software test lifecycle. Both of these phases benefit from each other. Synchronization between business requirements and cost of quality remains a challenge. In order to ensure that deliverables of the certain phase is completed and corrected as per business requirements we need to review all the deliverables after completion is each phase. HRMS (Human Resource Management System) applications converting from one ERP system to other ERP systems requires improved test life cycle which includes review process throughout phases of software test life cycle which in turn provide test effectiveness with minimum total cost of quality. In this communication defined STLC model for ERP conversion is reviewed and the STLC model is enhanced with both verification & validation in such a way that test effectiveness can be 98% with reduced amount of cost of quality. Incorporated requirement review process with testing team upon completion/during requirements gathering phase and ensure that quality occurs during the requirement definition phase and in turn achieved software quality with minimum total cost.

Keywords

Abstract

Regression testing is very important and necessary testing phase throughout the life cycle of agile model system development life cycle. Regression Test case prioritization techniques improve the cost effectiveness of regression testing by ordering test cases such that, more important test cases are run earlier in the regression testing process. Regression test selection techniques reuse test cases from an existing test suite to test a modified program (or) to ensure newly incorporated changes have not introduced any new defects to the existing software system. Most regression testing techniques are based on code or software design. This paper outlines the issues relevant to regression test selection techniques in agile test and uses these issues as the basis for evaluating new functional dynamic regression test selection technique.
