Answer Posted / rajesh

TEST PLAN :- A test plan is a systematic approach to
testing a system such as a machine or software. The plan
typically contains a detailed understanding of what the
eventual workflow will be.


Test plan contains the below fields:-
a) Test plan identifier;
b) Introduction;
c) Test items;
d) Features to be tested;
e) Features not to be tested;
f) Approach;
g) Item pass/fail criteria;
h) Suspension criteria and resumption requirements;
i) Test deliverables;
j) Testing tasks;
k) Environmental needs;
l) Responsibilities;
m) Staffing and training needs;
n) Schedule;
o) Risks and contingencies;
p) Approvals.

Basically Test plan will be prepare by Testing Lead. Tester
will just gotrough the document and write the testcases and
executes.

1.1 Purpose This tool is also a simple tool, but will be graphics- intensive, and will access the 3 databases (card databases) used in Tarot. 1.2 Scope Only for registered user. 1.3 User Interface - No questions asked, parrot pulls out tarot card - Inside Parrot application, User just have to click on a link saying ""XXXX"" to activate the tool. - Shown is the card of the day, from pack of Tarot cards(78 in number) with fixed graphics, animation, audio. Output: - Graphic-rich display of randomly selected card with detailed meaning, with links to tarot tool. - Graphics: Flying / walking parrot, emerging and choosing a card, displaying the same, and continuing to interact based on card meaning. - The cards also need to carry a brief 1/0 meaning, which will trigger a 1/0 behavior from the parrot (sympathy/making fun/crying or congratulating/smiling/winking)
