Performance Testing:

------------------------

If sending mail, receiving mail etc are considered, then we could test the performance of the email server as:

1) Like if one user is connected, what is the time taken to receive a single mail.

2) If 1000s of users are connected, what is the time taken to receive the same mail.

3) If 1000s of users are connected, what is the time taken to receive a huge attachment file.

 

Usability Testing:

-------------------

1) In Usability testing, we can check that, if a part of the email address is entered, the matching email addresses are displayed

2) If  the mail is tried to send without the subject or ?body of the text?, a warning is displayed.

3) If the To, Cc, Bcc contain an address, without @, it should immediately display a warning that the mail id is invalid.

4) Composing mails should be automatically stored as drafts.

In high level, I can see the coverage as

Platform coverage-> From where the emails are triggered like from email client (different email clients like Thunderbird,MS Outlook express, Opera Mail, Apple Mail etc) or enterprise webmail (like Outlook Web Access) or general email via browser (like gmail, yahoo from firefox, IE etc) and on different Operating systems.

Function coverage-> There are many functionalities, like validating 'to field','from field','cc field','bcc-field',attachments,subject line.

Sending emails to single, multiple, distribution list, general mail box.

Replying email, Forwarding email.

Formatting the email: As plain text, Rich text (bold,italics,underline, different fonts, hyper link , pasting of spread sheet, documents etc)


Performance testing: Sending / receiving high volumes of email, performance tuning on email client/server. Long sequence testing.
