Test Plan

The approach for managing quality includes the Test Plan and three major processes (listed

below): The Quality Plan (this document) is completed during the planning phase to validate that

the major deliverables are completed with an acceptable level of quality.

Completeness and Correctness Criteria:

The project team and major stakeholders should agree up front on when each major deliverable is

complete and correct. The deliverables are then evaluated against these criteria before they are

formally approved.

Quality Assurance:

Quality assurance activities focus on the processes being used to manage and deliver the solution,

and can be performed by an IS Manager, business sponsor, or a third-party reviewer.

Quality Control:

Quality control activities are performed continually throughout a project to verify that project

management and project deliverables are of high quality

Completeness and Correctness Criteria

The purpose of the completeness and correctness criteria is to work with the customer up front to define what it

means for a deliverable to be considered complete and correct. Then, when you meet those terms, you would expect

that the customer would indeed be happy. If you define the criteria and expectations up front, you will be much

better able to meet the customer’s expectations. In other words, there should be no surprises. (Remove this comment

section from final document.)

Levels of Testing to be Performed:

Describe the different levels, on what platforms executed, and sequence (including any pre-requisites. For

example, System, Unit, will be performed by the contractor and development staff on the DEV environment, while

User Acceptance (UAT), and Regression testing will be executed on the TEST environment. Before Version x can

be installed in Production, it must pass UAT in Test. (Remove this comment section from final document.)
