A test matrix is simply a spreadsheet that suggests test and captures test results by laying them out in the form of a table. A test matrix can be used for a number of purposes:

  • to record a consistent set of tests;
  • to document a desired level of test coverage based on an intersection of two criteria and, when filled out, to be used as evidence that the desired amount of testing has been done;
  • as a quick visual indication of how much testing has been done on those criteria;
  • to help to identify and refine the specific environments in which a defect occurs;
  • when it is completely filled out, as a checklist to assure that some exhaustive task has been completed.

Test Metrix:

It is used to convey progres of our project status report.

Test Procedure coverage: No. of test procedures Vs total number of test procedures execution

Error Density: Total number of errors Vs no. of test procedures execution.

Test Case coverage: Total number of test cases Vs no. of test cases execution and no. of test cases passed.

Defects:  Severity and Priority , time to find defec, time to fix defect , turn around time to defect.

It is a document that describes the percentile of coverage against the requirements, test cases and defects. For eg. if we are preparing metrix report for requirements then the document should contain the total number of requirements against the requirements that are yet to be developed in software.

If we are preparing a metrix report against the test cases then the document should contain the total number of test cases with the executed test cases and the test cases that are yet to be executed.

If we are preparing matrix report against the defects then the document should contain the total number of defects found against the fixed defects, unresolved defect and regression defects.

Test matrics is a mechanism to know the effectiveness of testing process. Its a feedback mechanism to improve the testing process. In test matrics we collect the following parameters,
1. Defect age
2. Defect Density
3. Defect leakage
4. Defect Distribution etc.

In test matrics we find out the percentile of each process.

INPUT Criteria : Defining the different inputs required for different phases of the testing is called Input Criteria.

Exit Criteria : The different deliverable s in the testing at different phases in the testing process called Exit Criteria.

Release Note : It is a document which specifies the following..

1. Modules currently released
2. unimplemented features
3. known bugs
4.changes with respect to previous release. etc..
