Installation testing should take care of the following
points: -
1. To check if while installing product checks for the
dependent software / patches say Service pack3.
2. The product should check for the version of the same
product on the target machine, say the previous version
should not be over installed on the newer version.
3. Installer should give a default installation path
say “C:\programs\.”
4. Installer should allow user to install at location other
then the default installation path.
5. Check if the product can be installed “Over the Network”
6. Installation should start automatically when the CD is
inserted.
7. Installer should give the remove / Repair options.
8. When uninstalling, check that all the registry keys,
files, Dll, shortcuts, active X components are removed from
the system.
9. Try to install the software without administrative
privileges (login as guest).
10. Try installing on different operating system.
