Introduction

The purpose of this document is to outline the System Test Plan for the implementation of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). This plan outlines the testing approach, resources, schedule, and deliverables to ensure that the 2FA system meets the specified requirements.

Objectives

The objective of the system testing is to validate the implementation of 2FA to ensure it enhances security by requiring two forms of authentication. The testing aims to verify functional, performance, and security aspects of the 2FA system.

Scope

The scope of the system testing includes:

  • Verification of the 2FA setup process.
  • Validation of the 2FA authentication process via different methods (e.g., SMS, email, authenticator apps).
  • Ensuring compatibility across different devices and browsers.
  • Stress testing to check the system's performance under load.
  • Security testing to identify potential vulnerabilities.

Test Strategy

The test strategy involves:

  • Functional Testing: To ensure all features of 2FA work as intended.
  • Performance Testing: To ensure the system can handle the expected load.
  • Security Testing: To identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities.
  • Usability Testing: To ensure the 2FA process is user-friendly and accessible.

Test Plan

Test Environment

The test environment will include:

  • Hardware: Servers, client machines, and mobile devices.
  • Software: Operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux), browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge), and authenticator apps.
  • Network: Configurations to simulate different network conditions.

Test Criteria

Entry Criteria:

  • Requirements and design documents are complete and approved.
  • Test environment is set up and configured.
  • Test data is available.
  • Test cases are reviewed and approved.

Exit Criteria:

  • All test cases are executed.
  • All critical and high-priority defects are resolved.
  • Test summary report is reviewed and approved.

Test Deliverables

  • Test Cases
  • Test Scripts
  • Test Data
  • Test Execution Reports

Resources

  • Personnel: Test Manager, Test Lead, Test Engineers, Developers, Business Analyst.
  • Tools: Test management tools, defect tracking tools, performance testing tools, security testing tools.

Roles and Responsibilities

Role Responsibility
Test Manager Oversee the testing process, manage resources, and ensure adherence to the test plan
Test Lead Coordinate testing activities and manage the test team
Test Engineer Design and execute test cases, report defects
Developer Fix defects and provide technical support
Business Analyst Ensure test cases align with business requirements

Defect Management

Defects will be recorded in a defect tracking system. Each defect will be assigned a severity level and tracked through to resolution. Regular defect review meetings will be held to prioritize and address issues.

Risk Management

Potential risks include:

  • Delays in environment setup.
  • Availability of key personnel.
  • Unforeseen technical issues.
    Mitigation strategies include:
  • Regular status meetings.
  • Cross-training team members.
  • Contingency plans for technical issues.
