Preface

What does the test mainly do ？ This is completely reflected in the test process , At the same time, the test process is the most frequent interview questions , This is not just because the testing process is important , But in the interview process, this short half an hour to an hour , Through the test process, we can judge whether the candidate is suitable , Therefore, the core content of testing work is included in the testing process , For example, requirements analysis , Design of test cases , The test execution , Defects and other important processes . Let's take iterative testing as an example , Draw the test flow chart for everyone ：

1、 Demand analysis

Generally, when the last iteration test is about to be completed , The requirements document for the next iteration has been released , Put it on the configuration management platform , It is convenient for testing and development , At this time, the General tester will automatically get the requirements document , Start doing requirements analysis , Demand analysis is mainly to analyze the next demand , From function interaction , Start with the key points of the test .

After the needs analysis , The requirements review will begin , If you don't understand the requirements review , You can view the previous article .

                      

 

2、 Write test cases

After the requirements review is completed , For testing , You should also need to write test plans and test plans , The general test plan is written by the test supervisor , The test plan is written by Senior Test Engineer , Therefore, some testers will not ask to write , But test cases are written by every tester , Generally, we mainly use black box case design method for test cases , Such as equivalence analysis , Boundary value analysis , Cause and effect diagram , Decision table , Scene method , State migration , Wrong speculation, etc , Design test cases according to their familiar methods and requirements documents .

After the test case is written , The tester is about to start the use case review , The review process of use case review is the same as that of Requirement Review , Just the initiator and review content , The review focus is different .

3、 The test execution

After the general use case review , We have to wait for the development and test .

After the transfer test is successful , The test side is about to start building the test environment , Then carry out smoke test , After passing the smoke test, the formal test execution stage begins .

Key points of smoke test ：

（1） The main functions of the original version

（2） The main functions and processes of the new requirements

4、 Write test report

A test report is a summary of a test activity , Summarize the project testing process , Make statistics on the test data , Objectively evaluate the quality of project testing . Although the test report templates of different companies are different , But the key points of the test report are the same , Generally, the software is briefly introduced first , Then explain that this report is a summary of the testing process of the product , Evaluate the test quality .

A complete test report must contain the following points .
introduction ： Describe the purpose of the test report 、 Explanation of professional terms and references in the report .
Test summary ： Introduce the background of the project 、 Test time 、 Information such as test location and tester .

Test content and implementation ： Describe the version of the local test module , Test type , Test case design method and test pass rate used , Provide the evaluation conclusion of the test execution process according to the passing of the test , And give suggestions for improvement of test execution activities , It can be used as a reference for subsequent test implementation activities .

Defect statistics and analysis ： Count the number of defects found in this test 、 Type, etc , Analyze the causes of defects , Give suggestions such as avoidance measures , At the same time, the residual defects shall be recorded to solve the problem .
Test conclusion and suggestion ： From demand compliance 、 Functional correctness 、 The overall evaluation of version quality is carried out from multiple dimensions such as performance indicators , Give specific and clear conclusions .

The data in the test report is true , Every conclusion must have an evaluation basis , It can't be subjective .

                     

 

5、 Submit the defect

In the formal testing phase , The tester executes the program according to the prepared test cases , When the actual result of executing the program is inconsistent with the expected result of the test case , You need to submit on the defect management tool bug single ,bug Single meeting basis bug Process flow .

6、 regression testing

When developers modify most bug when , Developers will merge again , Joint tune , Transfer measurement , At this time, the tester will enter the regression testing stage .

The focus of regression testing ：

（1） Check bug Whether the defects on the sheet have been repaired OK

（2） Check the modification bug Whether to introduce new bug

7、 Deploy online / deliver

During the test execution stage, the export criteria in the test standard will be followed , End the test activity , If the test result is OK Of , Then the operation and maintenance personnel can start to deploy and go online , Or version delivery .
