Before you begin testing, follow best practices by having
the test plan reviewed. The Formal Review section provides a way for
the entire team to collaborate in the development of the test plan;
it can help your business processes comply with applicable industry
standards and regulations. In the previous lesson, you added a new
requirement to the test plan. In this lesson, you continue as the
test architect and begin the approval process.
- If you have not already done so, log in as the test architect
(Userid: amy, Password: amy).
- If you do not have the Classics Java™ Test Plan open, point to Planning (
), and click View
Test Plans. From the list of test plans, click Classics Java Test Plan in the name column.
- From the table of contents, click the Formal
Review section.
- To set up the review process for this test plan:
- Click the Add Approvers/Reviewers icon (
).
- In Types, make sure Approver is selected.
- Type the test manager name, mary, in Search.
- In Matching users, click Mary, Test Manager, and then click Add &
Close.
- In the Action field below the
test plan name, select Ready for Review.
- Click Save.
This
action assigns a work item, or task, for the test manager. When a
team member assigns a work item to you, the item is displayed in the My Tasks viewlet of your dashboard.
- Log out as test architect.
The test manager receives a work item in her My
Tasks viewlet. In the next lesson, you log in as Mary to
review the test plan.
