Introduction

This document outlines the System Test Plan for Mike's Great Project, focusing on the implementation of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). It provides a structured approach to testing, detailing the objectives, scope, strategy, environment, criteria, deliverables, schedule, resources, roles, responsibilities, defect management, risk management, and communication plan.

Objectives

The primary objective of this system testing is to ensure the successful implementation and functionality of the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) feature. The testing aims to:

  • Verify that the 2FA feature functions as expected.
  • Ensure that the 2FA feature enhances security without compromising user experience.
  • Identify and document any defects or issues.

Scope

The scope of the system testing includes:

  • Verification of user enrollment in 2FA.
  • Authentication process using 2FA.
  • Handling of 2FA failures and fallback mechanisms.
  • Usability and performance of the 2FA feature.
  • Security aspects of the 2FA implementation.

Test Strategy

The overall test strategy includes:

  • Functional Testing: To verify that the 2FA feature works according to requirements.
  • Performance Testing: To ensure that the 2FA feature does not degrade system performance.
  • Security Testing: To validate the security aspects of the 2FA implementation.
  • Usability Testing: To ensure a smooth user experience.

Test Plan

Test Environment

The testing will take place in the following environment:

  • Hardware: Standard user devices (PCs, smartphones).
  • Software: Operating systems (Windows, macOS, iOS, Android).
  • Network: Secure network configurations for internal and external access.
  • Other Components: Authentication servers, databases, and required APIs.

Test Criteria

  • Entry Criteria:
    • All 2FA requirements and specifications are complete and reviewed.
    • Test environment is set up and ready.
    • Test data is prepared.
  • Exit Criteria:
    • All test cases have been 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 reports
  • Defect logs
  • Test summary report

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 managed using the following process:

  • Recording: Defects will be logged in a defect tracking tool.
  • Tracking: Defects will be tracked until resolution.
  • Resolution: Developers will fix defects, and Test Engineers will verify the fixes.
  • Reporting: Regular defect status reports will be generated.

Risk Management

Potential risks and mitigation strategies include:

  • Risk: Delays in test environment setup.
    • Mitigation: Start environment setup early and have contingency plans.
  • Risk: High number of defects.
    • Mitigation: Prioritize defect resolution and ensure quick turnaround.
