What do test cases usually include?

Use cases of different structures are included differently.(version, number, project, designer, design date, input, expected output...).

The basic elements of a software test case include test case number, test title, severity level, test input, operation steps, and expected results:

Use case number: There are certain rules for the number of test cases. For example, the number of system test cases is defined as: PROJECT1-ST-001. The naming rule is project name + test phase type (system test phase) + number.Define the test case number, which is convenient for finding test cases and tracking test cases.

Test Title: A description of the test case, the test case title should clearly express the purpose of the test case.For example, "Test the response of the software when the user enters an incorrect password when logging in".

Important level: Define the priority level of test cases, which can be roughly divided into two levels: "high" and "low".Generally speaking, if the priority of a software requirement is "high", then the test case priority for that requirement is also "high"; and vice versa, generally speaking, it is a 5-level division.

Test Input: Provides various input conditions in test execution.According to the input conditions in the requirements, determine the input of the test case.The input of the test case has a great dependence on the input of the software requirements. If the input of the requirements is not well defined in the software requirements, then the design of the test case will encounter great obstacles.

Action Steps: Provides the steps of the test execution process.For complex test cases, the input of test cases needs to be completed in several steps, which are listed in detail in the operation steps.

Expected Result: Provides the expected result of the test execution, which should be based on the output from the software requirements.If in the actual test process, the actual test result obtained does not match the expected result, then the test fails; otherwise, the test passes.

Profile

I am a test and development engineer, currently 25K, and I am currently working on unmanned driving. Welcome to exchange development and testing technology with you, and get a high-paying job together. We also have a group to fight monsters together.There is a small program for interview questions!

The above is the whole content of this article, I hope it will be helpful to everyone's study, and I hope everyone will support "software testing pytest".
