Imagine that you are a systems analyst on the project team that is developing an IT system for Millennia HealthCenter, as described in the business case you saw earlier in this course. The same team is almost finished developing the system, and is about to start the testing phase. Before the team starts on the testing tasks, you have been asked to create the system test plan. Your test plan will ensure that all features within the developed solution have been validated. The plan will also ensure that when the system is tested in the future, what has been tested and all test results have been documented.

Prompt

To ensure that your test plan will test the functionality of the system in the projects, you should refer to the activities you completed in Module Two and Module Four, as well as Project One in Module Five. Reviewing the business case, use case diagrams, use case specifications, and system requirements specification can help you have a better idea as to what kind of testing needs to be prioritized.

Your test plan should include the following components:

• Detailed test procedures, including how each testing task will be completed
• Who will participate in each testing phase
• Task dependencies within the testing phase, including when each testing task will be completed
• What test data will be used

This test plan will be used to check the system for readiness. After you have developed your test plan, write a brief reflection on making ethical decisions in the testing phase by thoroughly answering one of the following questions:

• If you found out that there were bugs in the system after completing several testing tasks, what would you do?
• If you found some small problems with the system, what would you do?
• What are the ethical dilemmas if you don’t complete the test plan prior to system launch?

You can use this Test Plan template to complete this activity, or you can create your own test plan. Something to keep in mind is that different industries and organizations will have their own templates, whether that’s for test plans, implementation plans, requirements specifications, etc.
