Testing Tests are performed using various strategies. Testing can be performed in parallel with coding. Installation The current system is replaced by the new system. 7 Deliverables The Process of Documenting the System, Training Users, and Supporting Users Two audiences for final documentation Information systems personnel who will maintain the system throughout its productive life People who will use the system as part of their daily lives User Training Application-specific General: for operating system and off-the-shelf software 9 Deliverables Software Application Testing A master test plan is developed during the analysis phase. During the design phase, unit, system and integration test plans are developed. The actual testing is done during implementation. Test plans provide improved communication among all parties involved in testing. 11 Test Classification Manual vs. Automated Static (syntax only) vs. Dynamic (execution) Manual Testing Techniques Inspection A testing technique in which .
