Project Name Test Plan
Provide a sequence for how the test scripts will be launched and describe each of the
dependencies for executing the test scripts.
Mention any limitations or problems encountered during the load testing
activities.
Describe the criteria for successful completion of the load test and how test results
will be verified and validated. ]
Approach
[How exactly the application will be tested.
For instance: Will the application be tested manually or with automated test tools? How will end
users be emulated? Create a specific description of your testing approach.
Testing Tools description (i.e. Automated)
Example: Loadrunner™ will be used for generating load. Winrunner™ will be used to record
and automate test scripts.
Test Data
Example: The human resources team (point of contact is ______ ) will provide all the
necessary data
to test the online recruitment business process, and will provide a total of 100
records. The data is stored on the ____ shared drive and the data is stored in a tab-delimited file.
Business requirements
[This section shows the rationale for selecting an application workflow to participate in the load
test. A created test script for load testing should trace to a requirement, service level agreement,
or identified tasks from a task distribution diagram. Below I provide some examples of service
level agreements, requirements, or identified tasks from a distribution diagram that might serve
as the basis for selecting business processes.]
Examples: 1. There is a business requirement to create 100 reports per hour per account. The
creation of a report per user account should take less than one minute with a maximum number
of concurrent end users logged on.
2. The middleware engineer identified the creation of line items as critical since it is high on
database input/output and because the creation of line item interfaces with other business
processes and kicks off a batch input job.
Note: In order to create a task distribution diagram it is necessary to identify how many
transactions occur for a given process and their frequency under a normal workday or under peak
conditions with a specified number of concurrent users. Additionally the expected number of
total annual transactions for a given process should be listed. For instance during the hours of
10:00 am through 1:00 pm under a normal work day 100 customer accounts are created per hour
