    Re: Categorization of Functional Testcases

    See we write test cases using ECP, BVA and cause and effect graph.

    If you want to categorize on the basis of these, then you can, otherwise, I have never heard about it.

    Re: Categorization of Functional Testcases

    We can categorize them according to scenario, but never heard about categorize test cases into complex and simple functionality?
    A good test case should neither too simple nor too complex.

    Re: Categorization of Functional Testcases

    we can catagorize functional test cases on the basis of priority. what is the module meant to do should be at first and then later the less priority test cases. for that u need to know all functionalities of the module.

    See akbhar,

    The way you are telling is not categorizing of test cases.This is the sorting of test cases according to a particular condition, which is in built facility of bug tracking tool.

    generally we are writing test cases using this technic


    1. User interface
    2. useability
    3. validity
    4. functionality

    After each fags we r using
    1. BVA(boundary value analysis)
    2. Equivalent partition (ECP)
    3. Error gassing
    4. Cause Effect Drafting

    using this tacking we r writing the test cases.


    Thanks

    I think question is not how we write test cases, question is how we categorize them?
