The PeopleSoft Testing Challenge
Effectively creating and maintaining the automated test scripts
Capturing the expertise of business users
Without this knowledge, your testing team can only test the obvious orthe familiar
If you could document your business users process knowledge, youcould turn that knowledge into automated test scripts
If you could document the resulting automated test script, the businessuser can verify it adequately meets the requirements
Maintaining the scripts
Requires input from both functional and technical teams
Required to truly understand the impact of change Without this knowledge errors are made in production either through
lack of knowledge on scope of change or downstream effects of achange.
If you could accurately and easily understand the impact of technicalchanges, you could turn that knowledge into updated automated testscripts.
