2、 Determine the list and number of smoking cases （ Usually the P0 Use case as smoking use case ）, As the basis for R & D self-test , At the same time, it serves as the standard for development and testing , Ensure the quality of demand measurement .

After the test case review is passed , In the cloud effect, the status of each use case should be set to reviewed , And update the use case level according to the review .

notes ： If test cases can come out before requirements review , Can play a greater value .

Refinement of test cases

According to the test plan , Gradually refine the test cases

• Manual test cases ： Write the input of specific test cases , Steps and expected results
• Automated test cases ： Write an automated script for the test , It also needs to include the input of test cases , Steps and expected results

Execution of test cases ：

• In the development stage ： As the basis for developing students' self-test , The development students test according to the smoking case , After the adoption of , You can test .
• In the test phase ： The test case is used as the smoke case for the test , As the acceptance standard of the proposed test , Ensure the quality of demand measurement .

summary

From requirements review to development and testing stage , Ensure the access and exit quality of development , Consolidate the foundation for the built-in quality . Generation of test cases , review , Self testing , Passing the test is also a product 、 The process of developing and testing collaboration .
