Abstract

Remember, the goal of the test project is twofold: to help improve the quality of the system and to make a statement about the degree to which the system will contribute to the anticipated goal. Until the system becomes available, the test activities will focus on understanding the anticipated goal, performing reviews and sanity checks, and preparing a test design and a test environment. The errors found during these activities should help improve the system. In order to make a statement about the real quality, the testers have to work with the system. This they do during the test runs.
