If project wants to release in 3months what type of Risk analysis u do in Test plan..

Answer / satish

Use risk analysis to determine where testing should be
focused. Since it's rarely possible to test every possible
aspect of an application, every possible combination of
events, every dependency, or everything that could go
wrong, risk analysis is appropriate to most software
development projects. This requires judgement skills,
common sense, and experience. (If warranted, formal methods
are also available.) Considerations can include:

? Which functionality is most important to the
project's intended purpose?
? Which functionality is most visible to the user?
? Which functionality has the largest safety impact?
? Which functionality has the largest financial
impact on users?
? Which aspects of the application are most important
to the customer?
? Which aspects of the application can be tested
early in the development cycle?
? Which parts of the code are most complex, and thus
most subject to errors?
? Which parts of the application were developed in
rush or panic mode?
? Which aspects of similar/related previous projects
caused problems?
? Which aspects of similar/related previous projects
had large maintenance expenses?
? Which parts of the requirements and design are
unclear or poorly thought out?
? What do the developers think are the highest-risk
aspects of the application?
? What kinds of problems would cause the worst
publicity?
? What kinds of problems would cause the most
customer service complaints?
? What kinds of tests could easily cover multiple
functionalities?
? Which tests will have the best high-risk-coverage
to time-required ratio
