Introduction
This document outlines the System Test Plan for Mike's Fantastic Banking Project. The purpose of this test plan is to ensure that the replacement of the legacy core banking system with Temenos Transact R24 and third-party applications is executed smoothly and meets all specified requirements. The structure of this document will guide the testing process to ensure comprehensive coverage and quality assurance.
Objectives
The primary objectives of the system testing are:
- Validate the integration of Temenos Transact R24 with third-party systems (Paymentus and LendingPad).
- Ensure the migration does not disrupt services for the bank’s 250,000 customers.
- Confirm that accounts with $100 or less are purged, closed, and refunded accurately.
- Verify the code connecting Temenos Transact's APIs and the Selenium automation scripts.
- Ensure the UX adheres to the design constraint of using only different shades of blue.
Scope
The scope of the system testing includes:
- Functional testing of Temenos Transact R24.
- Integration testing with Paymentus and LendingPad.
- Data migration validation, including account closure and refund process.
- Automated testing using Selenium scripts.
- UX testing to ensure compliance with design guidelines.
Test Strategy
The test strategy encompasses the following types of testing:
- Functional Testing: Validate the core functionalities of the new system.
- Integration Testing: Ensure seamless interaction between Temenos Transact R24, Paymentus, and LendingPad.
- Data Migration Testing: Verify the accuracy and integrity of migrated data.
- Automated Testing: Use Selenium scripts to automate regression and functional tests.
- UX Testing: Confirm that the user interface meets design specifications.
Test Plan
Test Environment
The testing will be conducted in a controlled environment that replicates the production setup as closely as possible. This includes:
- Hardware: Servers and workstations with configurations matching production.
- Software: Temenos Transact R24, Paymentus, LendingPad, necessary middleware, and Selenium WebDriver.
- Network: Configurations mirroring production network settings.
Test Criteria
Entry Criteria:
- Test environment setup is complete.
- Test data is prepared and available.
- Test cases and scripts are reviewed and approved.
Exit Criteria:
- All test cases have been executed.
- All critical and major defects are resolved.
- A test summary report is completed and reviewed.

Defect Management
Defects will be recorded in a defect tracking tool. Each defect will be logged with a unique ID, description, severity, and assigned to a responsible developer. Defects will be tracked through their lifecycle until resolution.
Risk Management
Potential risks include:
- Delays in test environment setup.
- Data migration issues.
- Integration problems with third-party systems.
- Unresolved critical defects.
Mitigation strategies involve:
- Early setup and validation of the test environment.
- Thorough data migration planning and testing.
- Close collaboration with third-party vendors.
- Regular defect triage meetings.
