Controlled Assessment
As part of the Controlled Assessment component of the course, you are expected to produce a robust test plan for both your website and database solution. Your testing should use appropriate test data and provide screenshots as evidence.
Testing systems
The test plan should be contained in your design documentation. It should aim to discover any and every flaw in your system.
For example:
A range of tests should be planned and completed, with valid, invalid and extreme data tested. Errors should be clearly identified using the test plan, with screenshots to support corrective action. Testing should reflect the general robustness of the system.
