Software Testing Standards

ISO - International Organization for Standardization (1947)

IEEE - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (1963)

IEC - International Electrotechnical Commission (1906)

BS (BSI) - British Standards (1901)

2) IEEE 829-1998

IEEE Standard for Software Test Documentation

The Types of Document:

There are eight document types in the IEEE 829 standard, which can be used in three distinct phases of software testing:

Preparation of Tests

Test Plan: Plan how the testing will proceed.

Test Design Specification: Decide what needs to be tested.

Test Case Specification: Create the tests to be run.

Test Procedure: Describe how the tests are run.

Test Item Transmittal Report: Specify the items released for testing.

Running the Tests

Test Log: Record the details of tests in time order.

Test Incident Report: Record details of events that need to be investigated.

Completion of Testing

Test Summary Report: Summarise and evaluate tests.
