Test Plan – Hotel Reservation System

Test Plan – Hotel Reservation System

A test plan is a document which describes the scope and testing activities. It forms a basis for testing any software formally. The objective of the test plan is to communicate the conditions which are needed to successfully assess and validate a system (“System Evolutif Limited,” 2016). Test cases to be implemented in a test plan can either be positive or negative. The positive test cases aim to check that functionality is operating correctly using a specified input format. Negative test cases check every situation that may cause an error, it also finds the unexpected situations that may cause errors. The Test cases that are implemented below are positive (EasyQA, 2017)

Name of Project: Hotel Reservation System
Test Plan
Test Case ID:	Test Designed by: (Name)
Test Priority (Low/Medium/High):	Date: (Date)
Module Name: Customer user interface	Tester: (Name)
Title: Test the option code entered for customers	Test Execution date: (Date)
Description: Ensure the correct option code is entered.

 

Pre-conditions: Customers and front desk clerks should be available
Step	Test Steps	Test Data	Expected Result	Actual Result		Status (Pass/Fail)	Notes
1	Leave the input field blank and submit	*no input*	Show an error message	Same as expected
2	Enter input more or less than 4 characters	abcd3 or abc	Notify that the code is invalid	Same as expected
3	Enter input with the wrong format. (not alphabet)	1234	Show a wrong format error message	Same as expected
4	Enter none as the input	‘none’	Success message and proceed to the next step	Same as expected
5	Enter a valid code as the option code	*valid code that exists*	Success message and proceed to the next step	Same as expected
Post-conditions: A valid code is entered and the system redirects to the next step.

Assume systems analysts are developing a test plan for the user interface of a hotel reservation system. As the front desk clerks are entering customers and payment information into the system, they will be able to either enter an option code into a text box or select an option code from a drop-down list. A combo box was used to implement this since it was felt that the front desk clerks would quickly become familiar with the most common option codes and would prefer entering them directly to speed up the entry process.

It is now time to develop the test for validating the option code field during data entry. If the customer did not make any room reservation options, the front desk clerks should enter “none”; the field should not be blank. The valid option codes are four-character alphabetic codes and should be matched against a list of valid codes. Prepare a test plan for the test of the option code field during data entry.
