What are the steps, procedures, objectives to write test
cases.

Answer Posted / tztexas

The first step in writing a test case is reading and
understanding the requirements. there should be a minimum
of one test case per requirement, though you will have more
test cases per requirement.
Most test cases are negative test cases. What happens when
an entry is made that should not have been made.
procedure: you write the steps to perform the test case.
You already have expected results. After the test case is
performed, you enter a P for pass, F for fail, B for
blocked. and other comments. You also have a column for the
requirement you tested.
The obectives of a test case is to make sure the
requirement is met and the functionality works as
designed/requested. You also make sure that incorrect
entries (negative test cases) are tested and that valid
error messages (when needed) are displayed.
Don't forget to document your testing cases and record
important information such as the build number, date, and
person performing the test.
These are just a few of many steps and procedures needed to
write effective test cases.
