Answer / a sameer

Analyse the question, from the question we got the below points

1. Its blocking the application to move forward ( showstopper).
2. There is client release in due next week.
3. Hundred's of test cases remained to execute.

From the above things we can do the follow actions

1. Try to resolve the bugs ASAP and meanwhile execute those
test cases which are not related to those scenario. In this
way we can have sufficient time to test the bugs and at the
same time we can check the bugs regression.

2. Extend the client day explaining the severity of the bugs.

3. If the bugs is too hard to solve within the timestamp
available the best option left would be revert back the
previous latest version we had ( if it is jut few weeks back
release) and try to fix the new enhancement quickly.

Answer / remo

It is clear from the question we cannot proceed with
testing unless and until the bug is fixed. So next step
should be resolving the bug. if the bug is not critical,
then fix the bug and proceed further with testing , if it
critical and if it needs some time to be fixed, we have to
extend the dead lines(Delivery to the customer.)

If it is an onsite project we will send mail to the client
and will setup a client Call. In the client call the same
is discussed with the client and depending on the client
response we will take the necessary actions.

Answer / chennamsubbaraidu

U suppose 2 say that
1. First i will Execute high severity bugs
2. check the basic and main functionality test cases
for every module u suppose 2 have the main functionality
test cases and high severity test cases.
3.then u suppose 2 give the preference to show stopper
errors test cases.By watching the flow of the module u can
undersatnd.

Answer / kiran

Question clearly says that due to show stopper(Bug) Testing
cannot be continued and yet to execute hundred of test
cases in a weeks time.

1. Analyse the bug and inform the development to fix ASAP.
See the feasbility how much time required to fix it.
2. Extend the client delivery day by explaining the
severity and complexity of Bug.
3. You need to discuss with u r manager or clients for
choosing alternate environment to meet deadlines(If
application has parallel environments)
4.If not u need to record schedule slipage for Management
activities.
5.Once u r issue is resolved, you need to pick high
priority test cases(Business specified scenarios) and
execute them to avoid schedule slippage expect to be
delivered to client.

Hope this answer might be useful for all.

Thanks

First Name & Last Name fields are there in the application form, In Application First name & last name fields accepts the numerical value 453455 & special characters $%#$% . My question is that --> I think No need to write test cases for Numerical value & special char. for First & Last name fields BECAUSE No one will enter such a input data at client side b'coz it's not practical. Let's me know the answer.
