How to create Test Data? What are the Fields in Test Data.
Please any one specify the format of Test Data?

Answer Posted / rajesh

If you are writing test case then you need input data for
any kind of test. Tester may provide this input data at the
time of executing the test cases or application may pick
the required input data from the predefined data locations.
The test data may be any kind of input to application, any
kind of file that is loaded by the application or entries
read from the database tables. It may be in any format like
xml test data, system test data, SQL test data or stress
test data.

Design your test data considering following categories:
Test data set examples:
1) No data: Run your test cases on blank or default data.
See if proper error messages are generated.

2) Valid data set: Create it to check if application is
functioning as per requirements and valid input data is
properly saved in database or files.

3) Invalid data set: Prepare invalid data set to check
application behavior for negative values, alphanumeric
string inputs.

4) Illegal data format: Make one data set of illegal data
format. System should not accept data in invalid or illegal
format. Also check proper error messages are generated.

5) Boundary Condition data set: Data set containing out of
range data. Identify application boundary cases and prepare
data set that will cover lower as well as upper boundary
conditions.

6) Data set for performance, load and stress testing: This
data set should be large in volume.

This way creating separate data sets for each test
condition will ensure complete test coverage.

Requirement from Market “Alice is talking to Bob. Bob thinks that Alice should talk to Chris for more information. Currently, Bob will pass on the directory number of Chris to Alice; Alice/Bob will disconnect the call and then Alice will initiate a new call to Chris. What we need need, Bob should be able to transfer the call to Chris, without Alice making another call.” Implementation done by Unified CM Development Team When a basic call is connected, a new softkey “Transfer” will be displayed on the IP Phone. User (say, Bob) can press that and dial a target (say, Chris). Bob has two options (1) wait for Chris to answer and then tell Chris about call from Alice and then press “transfer” again to complete transfer (2) press “Transfer” immediately; when Chris answers he will be connected to Alice Please come up with test cases thinking from a user perspective, let’s say from a Bank (there could be users such as receptionists, accountants, managers etc.) – in what all scenarios transfer can happen, any negative scenarios (cases where we don’t get a positive response always). If you think you need an enhancement to the feature, please go ahead and suggest that as well.
