Test Specifications

Testing is a continuous activity that cuts across all phases of the software development process. It is also a labor-intensive activity. Studies have shown the resources used for  writing code for testing purposes range can be much higher than developing the intended applications. This high cost makes testing an attractive target for improvement. Using documentation professionals will keep the developers in the activity of developing.

W. L. Reid & Associates produce industry standard test cases with the goal to fully test and verify that all the requirements for the project are met. Each test case includes a test case summary, configuration, initial condition, steps to run the test case and expected behavior and outcome. The requirements traceability matrix is used to validate the test. We realize that testing cover many activities, so our services include test cases for all types of test. We provide unit test cases, integration test cases, system test cases, regression test cases, acceptance test cases, and any other type of test the client requests.

Documentation is an integral part of the software testing process. Failure to produce test documents will result in inadequate software. From our experience, documentation tend to lag or not get the necessary attention needed to validate the product. Developers are relieved from the duties of documentation when reliance on experienced developers at W. L. Reid & Associates is obtained.
