What do you mean to CAPA?..

Answer / dillip palai

Corrective action and preventive action (CAPA, also called
corrective action / preventive action) are improvements to
an organization's processes taken to eliminate causes of
non-conformities or other undesirable situations[1]. CAPA is
a concept within good manufacturing practice (GMP). It
focuses on the systematic investigation of the root causes
of non-conformities in an attempt to prevent their
recurrence (for corrective action) or to prevent occurrence
(for preventive action).

Corrective actions are implemented in response to customer
complaints, undesired levels of internal nonconformity, non
conformities identified during an internal audit or adverse
or unstable trends in product and process monitoring such as
would be identified by SPC. Preventive actions are
implemented in response to the identification of potential
sources of non-conformity.

To ensure that corrective and preventive actions are
effective, the systematic investigation of the root causes
of failure is pivotal. CAPA is part of the overall quality
management system (QMS).

An engineering college wants to automate their examination activities to speed up their work and maintain high-end accuracy of information. A brief overview of the proposed system is given below: The proposed examination system is consisting of 8 semesters spread across 9 branches (assume your own branch names) and spans over a period of 4 years. Each student belongs to a branch and must register for a minimum of 6 courses but not exceed 8 courses maximum. The scoring pattern for each course is given as below: Maximum marks for each course: 100 Pass: 35% Distinction: 70% and above First class: =>60% and <70% Second class: >50% and <60% Pass Class: >=35% and <50% The proposed system computes the result and announces the results every semester. The results must be accurate and all examination records will be maintained till the students leave the college. Develop a Test Strategy to test the proposed system. Your Test Strategy must include the following: • Test Plan • Testing Methodology to be followed • Test cases • Test effort estimation • Test Correction Mechanism Note: If you need more information on the requirement specification, you are permitted to assume along the same line but clearly specify the details.
