Agile Testing checklist

Agile testing is a software testing practice that follows the principles of agile software development. Agile testing involves all members of a cross-functional agile team, with special expertise contributed by testers, to ensure delivering the business value desired by the customer at frequent intervals, working at a sustainable pace. Specification by example is used to capture examples of desired and undesired behaviour and guide coding.

• All fields on page (e.g. text box, radio options, dropdown lists) should be aligned properly
• Numeric values should be right justified unless specified otherwise
• Enough space should be provided between field labels, columns, rows, error messages etc.
• Scroll bar should be enabled only when necessary
• Font size, style and colour for headline, description text, labels, infield data, and grid info should be standard as specified in SRS

• Disabled fields should be greyed out and user should not be able to set focus on these fields
• Upon click of any input text field, mouse arrow pointer should get changed to cursor
• Information filled by users should remain intact when there is error message on page submit. User should be able to submit the form again by correcting the errors
• Check if proper field labels are used in error messages
• Dropdown field values should be displayed in defined sort order
• Default radio options should be pre-selected on page load
• Check if correct fields are highlighted in case of errors
• Check if dropdown list options are readable and not truncated due to field size limit
• All buttons on page should be accessible by keyboard shortcuts and user should be able to perform all operations using keyboard
• Check all pages for broken images
• Check all pages for broken links
• All pages should have title
• Confirmation messages should be displayed before performing any update or delete operation

Bug Logging Template

When logging a bug, the outline below should be used by internal testers as well as clients

Test Summary/Description: Describe test objective in brief.

Pre-condition: Any prerequisite that must be fulfilled before execution of this test case. List all pre-conditions in order to successfully execute this test case.

Dependencies: Mention any dependencies on other test cases or test requirement.

Test Steps: List all test execution steps in detail. Write test steps in the order in which these should be executed. Make sure to provide as much details as you can. Tip – to efficiently manage test case with lesser number of fields use this field to describe test conditions, test data and user roles for running test.

Test Data: Use of test data as an input for this test case. You can provide different data sets with exact values to be used as an input.

Expected Result: What should be the system output after test execution? Describe the expected result in detail including message/error that should be displayed on screen.

Actual result: Actual test result should be filled after test execution. Describe system behaviour after test execution.

Example

• Test Summary/Description: Freeze after tapping “Save”
• OS: 8.3
• Device: iPhone 4S/5/6/6+
• Build: 60
• Test Steps:
  • Download build 60
  • Add User
  • Tap Save
  • App Freezes
• Test Data:
  • Username – Admin
  • Password - Password
• Expected Result: App should not freeze
• Actual result: App freezes after tapping save

Test Case Template

A test case is a set of conditions under which a tester will determine whether an application, software system or one of its features is working as it was originally established for it to do.
