Prepare A Test Case Report On Any Features Of Your Choice Which Are In

Prepare a test-case report on any features of your choice which are in Engage. The test case report, which should be at least 8 pages, should have the following: An introduction describing the purpose of Engage in MU community as well as the features that your report will consider for testing. In the introduction, the last paragraph should describe the structure of your test-case report. A description of the test environment for conducting the tests. The types of software tests you will consider and their purpose.

10 Test cases (use the template below for each test case). Exit Criteria – conditions that must be fulfilled to successfully conclude the testing cycle or exercise. Description of the components in the above the test case template: Test case # - since you are required to have 10 test cases for each template, just use running numbers e.g. 1 if you are working on the first test case and so forth. Test case name – state the name of the test case e.g. login with MU ID and password, etc. Type of test case – this should be either functional or non-functional requirements. You will need to figure this out for each test case since you can now differentiate between functional and non-functional requirements. First start with the functional requirements and then conclude with non-functional requirements. Test scenario – a list of logical steps that you will perform when conducting each test. Test data – data that will be used to test the application. For password related data, please do not use your actual passwords or usernames – make up something for purposes of this project. Also don’t use actual personally identically information like phone numbers, addresses, etc. Expected result – expected behavior or outcome when that test is performed. Entry Criteria – conditions that must exist for the test to be conducted e.g. the availability of the internet to conduct the test for the login interface, etc. You can add additional conditions.

Introduction

The MU community utilizes Engage as a comprehensive platform for academic, administrative, and community engagement activities. Engage provides various features aimed at enhancing communication, resource sharing, and participation among students, faculty, and staff. For this report, I will focus on testing critical features such as login authentication, course enrollment, discussion forums, and resource access. The structure of this report includes an overview of the testing environment, the testing types employed, and an organized set of 10 test cases covering functional and non-functional requirements.

Test Environment

The testing environment consists of a Windows 10 PC with the latest version of Google Chrome browser, connected to a stable internet connection. The Engage platform is accessed via the university's intranet. Test data includes dummy usernames and passwords, with varied scenarios to simulate real user interactions. The environment also includes tools for recording test results and capturing screenshots for defect tracking.

Types of Software Tests and Their Purposes

The testing will encompass both functional and non-functional testing types. Functional testing involves verifying features like login, course registration, and discussion participation, ensuring they operate according to specifications. Non-functional testing assesses factors such as usability, response time, and security, ensuring the platform’s performance and reliability meet standards. These tests help identify issues that could impede user experience and system stability.

Test Cases

1. Test Case 1: Login with MU ID and Password

   Type of Test Case: Functional

   Test Scenario: Enter valid MU ID and password, then click login. Verify successful login redirects to dashboard.

   Test Data: MU ID: student123, Password: Test@123

   Expected Result: User is logged in successfully and directed to the main dashboard.

   Entry Criteria: Internet connection active, platform accessible, user registered with valid credentials.

2. Test Case 2: Course Enrollment

   Type of Test Case: Functional

   Test Scenario: Login as a student, navigate to courses, select a course, and enroll. Confirm enrollment confirmation message appears.

   Test Data: Student MU ID: student456, Course Code: CS101

   Expected Result: Student successfully enrolled, and enrollment confirmation appears.

   Entry Criteria: Valid user login, course available open for enrollment.

Conclusion

The comprehensive testing of Engage’s critical features ensures system reliability and a positive user experience. Functional tests confirm core operations such as login and course registration, while non-functional assessments guarantee usability and performance standards. Together, these tests contribute to a robust platform supporting the MU community’s educational needs.
