What do you mean by generate License ? Is it a key, which you mail to your customer or what?

In our company too we generate license and send it to the user.
Assume that the expiry date is 30th June '07 and no. of users are 10 and today's date is 26th June '07
1. The license should work till 30th June '07 but not beyond it. In my company if the server date exceeds this date then the whole system gets down.
2. If 11the user is added then appropriate error should be displayed.
3. If the license with past date is generated then the app server should not start. Should display appropriate error message.
4. see if the proper files are generated during license generation. What if the file is not put in the intented folder. what if some of them are placed. try changing the system date and see if the license works. Some intelligent sw maintain their own calander sort of the thing . so even changing a system date will have not effect, you have to format your disk to run it again.

Hope this helps and do correct me if I am wrong
