Test policy is the philosophy that an organisation will
follow in all its projects/test activities. e.g use of
static reviews on all testware (test plans, test scripts
etc)

Answer / medhat mahmoud

The test strategy: which covers following areas,
Test Goals,Test Organization Structure and Roles&
Responsibilities, Test Types and Test Levels, Test Model,
Test Process, Automation test approach, Entry and Exit
Criteria for each test level and test type, Test Data
Management Processes, Key Performance Indicators, Test
Process Improvement, Training Program
The strategic approach to testing that shall be carried out
by testing team.

As Example:

TEST EXECUTION:
Objective
The objective of this process area is to execute the tests
in line with test execution schedule captured in test plan.
Incidents (defects) are recorded and managed to closure. Re-
test and regression approaches are followed to ensure work
product quality. The test team executes the designed test
cases/scripts until they execute without errors or a
predefined condition is reached.

Entry Criteria:
- Test design phase is complete and test case baseline is
available
- Development testing is complete and Development test
report made available
- All Development test defects are closed
- Build (code components) is promoted to testing environment
- Integration test execution plan is finalized

Exit Criteria:
- Expected test coverage is achieved
- All test cases are executed successfully and Identified
product risks are mitigated
- All defects identified are closed and required work
product quality is achieved

Deliverables:

- Test Report
- Tested Application

------------------------------------------------------
Test Policy: which is intended to be used by all
stakeholders of testing to understand the strategic
approach to testing and how the stakeholders can use the
testing services to improve the quality of the application
under maintenance and development.

As example:
- Acceptance and Approval Processes
* Build Acceptance
> Satisfactory completion of development tests
> Availability of development tests, test results,
defect report to review
> Development tests and results are available in the
test tool
>Demonstration of changes where possible like user
interface changes / new interface

- Deliverable Acceptance
- Test Strategy Deviation Approval
- Escalation ...

Test Policy is defined at organisational Level :
Ex: Which are best process and procedures that needs to be
followed for Testing activity as a part of SDLC.
This also includes all the Global industry standards.

Companies which are CMMI Level( 1 to 5) are supposed to have
well defined test Policy which is mandatory for them to
be called as CMMI Level ( 1 to 5 )..

By Ensuring that company has a good test policy in place ,
It gives confidence to clients that company will execute
there there projects in the right approved industry
standards and process.

Test strategy :
These are defined at Project level based on the nature of
the project. Project management will refer to test Policy
while creating test strategy...

In other words,
Test Policy is Encyclopedia while Test strategy is an search
criteria within encyclopedia

Answer / james ochiai-brown

According to TMMi the test policy defines the
organization’s overall test objectives, goals and strategic
views regarding testing.

My understanding is that it should state what activities
constitute testing (e.g. test planning, test analysis and
design etc.) and differentiate these from debugging. It may
be useful to say what proportion of project effort is
typically to be spent on testing ( I have heard 30-40% is a
good measure).

A test strategy is more like a template test plan. It
defines the test levels, roles and responsibilities that
you would expect to see covered in a test plan. To create
your test plan you start from the strategy and adapt it to
thespecific conditions of the project.

I'm still unclear where the process, metrics and plans for
the management of the overall testing programme should be
defined. E.g. the test organisaion and its management, test
process improvement, training etc. Any suggestions?

Test Statergy
Address the risk and define the process through which the
risk can be reduced.The two component of test statergy are
1.Test Factor
Define Issue or Risk
2.Test Phase
Define Phase of SDLC where testing will occur.

Test Statergy is " How to Test ?? "
Methodologies
(Manual or Automation)

Test Policy :
It is the deadline or achivements that has to be achived in
process of testing or product at the end of the testing.
