BluePrint: Quality Assurance

Introduction

This blueprint outlines the development of the automatic testing framework. This automatic testing framework will provide robust testing of the code-base and ensure proper maintenance of the code.

Whenever some changes are added in the current code, it has to be validated and tested upon with the integration with the other components of the code. So, this framework will provide this support.

With tests running on a scheduler, continuous testing can be done. This is important to Sahana, seeing the rapid movement of the code-base. Currently, Sahana has automatic test framework, whose details can be found here

Stakeholders

• Developers - With an automatic testing framework setup, it will be relatively easier for the developers to test their changes in the code.

• People who want to deploy Sahana - They would like to run the tests to ensure that the system is integrated well and ready for deployment.

• Sahana as a service - Automated testing will provide Quality Assurance to it’s clients.

User Stories

<​http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_story> <A good User Story should answer the following questions:> <* Who the user is> <* What they want the solution to do for them?> <* Why they want it to do that? (goal)> <eg. A <type of user> wants the solution to <do something for them> so that <can achieve a goal>.>

Requirements

<Group requirements in subsections, e.g. _{etc.> <​http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Requirements_analysis requirements> <Identify different types of requirements:>}

Functional

Non-functional

Interoperability

Standards

System Constraints

Use-Cases

<Describe what the system does for different users> <Include diagrams where useful> Tip: a simple, fast and multi-platform tool to draw UML diagrams is ​UMLet (Java-based UML drawing tool).

Design

<Where relevant include alternative design options>

Data Model

(e.g. EER or class diagrams)

Workflows

<Diagrams or Pseudocode>

Site Map
