Hi gunjalanil,

We can write more number of test case on notepad application.The basic conept is to validate menu

1) File
2) Edit
3) Format
4) View
5) Help

Each of these menu has submenu ,i can give you brief description how to start writting test cases.

[B]For Menu[/B]

Validate the click of each menu corresponding to relevant result.Say if you open file menu and hit on new,the notepad should open blank file and cursor blinking on the top righten corner

[B]Eg: test case[/B]

Test case No: TXXXX
Test scenario :Validating menu option -- > if you open file menu and hit on new,the notepad should open blank file and cursor blinking on the top righten corner
Expected Result : What you get as a output
Actual Result : Notepad succesfully opened new file

Similarly you can validate for submenu and other menu

[B]For Shortcut[/B]

For this you need to know the shortcut for each function say if you want to open new file you can hit Ctrl+N.Do the same for other shortcuts.

Unless and untill you understand each and every function on notepad you can't write test cases.Please navigate and find the functionality to built test cases in similar way.

To test Notepad Application :

Functional Test Cases :
1) new page should be blank and cursor on beginning of first line.
2) the application allows typing
3) the application allows saving
4) the application allows opening a saved instance
5) validate menus and submenus
6) type of data that can be saved (numeric, alphanumeric, special chars)
7) editing the saved data(changing the font size, type, deleting, adding) and saving the changes.
8) saving a blank file.
9) validate file name : renaming file/keeping the default name/duplicate file name/sp chars in filename

Non-functional Test Cases :
1) do performance testing by opening, say, 100 instances of notepad (possibly by using an automated tool) and determining the response time.
2) check max length of data.

Why don't you try test management tool like Zephyr (getzephyr dot com)

Hi there,

Iam also new to testing and learning to write test cases. I started it in a way by first checking out all the file option and then moving on to other menu items. While clearly writing test cases for all the options in one menu say in file, write test cases for new,open, save etc.
Silmilarly do for other options.

Thanks

can anyone give negative testcases for notepad?

Hi minni,

Negative test case for notepad can be written as like dis..

1.open a new notepad -- new notepad should be opened
2.enter the text in the notepad -- it should allow the text to be entered
3.Try to close the notepad without saving -- it should not allow u to close directly. Instead it should prompt a dialog box saying "Do u want to save the changes"?.

like wise prepare few more scenarios and write the test cases..
Hope dis might be useful to u..
