Answer / manasa
we have to plan our tests in manner that the test cases are
executed on priority bases .by the time if they ask to
quit,we have done the best in the time that's
available.according to priority critical should be executed
first, then major and then minor.
please suggest me i i am wrong.

Answer 1 appears more correct instead Answer (2) and its
supporter. Because when we talk about integration of
modules in the application which also meant that customer
would be enforced to fulfill the all the flow of the
functionality in order to get his desirable outcome. In
this flow we can not decise what is important and what is
not. Example: In a flight search application registration
is mandatory. How would you decide which is important from
customer point of view? I believe more important is while
execution of the application is what is severity level?

Answer / anand kulkarni
You are right manasa.
But consider the below scenario also:
We have 20 minor test cases. Now lets assume that these 20
test cases(Requirements) is being used frequently by the
customer. Then we have to test these test cases also(as the
priority is high). Its not just the severity that decides
the execution but also the priority.
So before we proceed with the testing we need to decide
what functionality is being used frequently by the customer.
If the requirement is critical(High severity) but very less
frequently used by the customer(low priority) then there
may not be a need to test it under tight schedules.
Please correct me if i am wrong or if there any other ideas
on this.

U r right Anand
let we discuss about severity not priority.
Severity means the impact of the bug on the fuctionality/apppl. this is list box with values are
case1.critical
case2.high
case3.medium
case4.low
so we are in first case.we will execute the first 50 test cases after that major 30 test case and last one is minor 20 test case.
Pl give the correct ans if i am wrong.
thanks

Answer / pooja
if we have 100 test cases then we will complete it also with scenario based testing, first we understand overall 100 test cases functionality and that way we execute different scenarios, and in that scenarios we execute our testcases also, means bulk of testcases we complete within scenario and that we complete our 100 testcases within a day.
