TestSpec module

Overview

The FIT | TestSpec module integrates with the FIT | BugTrack template to offer a quick, efficient, and cost effective method for tracking Test Cases and their execution. This module ensures consistency between test runs regardless of who is doing the testing, and when the test is being run. TestSpec eliminates the need for bulky and cumbersome spreadsheets or word documents to track Test Case definitions and executions. All data is stored in a central repository which allows data generated by various teams to be maintained in a coordinated environment.

FIT | TestSpec is a test case management tool that controls and documents the test specification process. TestSpec allows you to define independent sets of test cases for multiple projects and then documents the results of test runs executed by the testing team. This gives you an accurate and up to date repository of information which is stored on a central server and available to all appropriate users. In addition, this module is built on top of the bug tracking template of FIT, Alcea's web-based defect tracking tool. This combines the test specification process together with Alcea's proven defect management process for a complete package for all quality assurance and testing specialists.

The test execution process is broken down into test cases for each project. Each test case is then broken down further into test steps which are executed as Test Runs. As a tester creates and activates a test run, they can step through the test cases and input the results of the executions as a Test Result. These results are then stored for future reference and are available to the reporting feature.

When problems are discovered during a test run, defects that are linked to specific Test Cases can be entered into the FIT defect tracking system. Once in the tracking system, the defect issue can be assigned to the appropriate user and all changes are tracked while the defect is being resolved. After entering a defect encountered during the execution of a test case, the user is returned to Fast TestSpec so they can continue their testing. The two systems work together and users can toggle between the two interfaces at will.
