IA 1.5 Search - acceptance testing

[kittykat]

Verify the product against release acceptance criteria

What we need going into the session

• List of acceptance criteria for every task IA1.5
• Pick a time when Product can attend
• 100% of IA1.5 tasks are complete
• Community testing has happened and all of the issues found during testing have been resolved (this can be a "won't fix" resolution)

During the session

• Lay out standard paths to follow to achieve tasks (test cases with steps)
• Run through some exploratory test cases (tasks to achieve without steps)
• Collect defects and enhancements which are found, and make sure to collect accurate reproductions steps with screenshots and screen recordings as needed
• Compare every view in threads against designs

Outputs from the session

• Product processes and files found issues
• Decision is made on whether product is ready for release (and if not, clear record made of what needs to happen to reach the point of release)
• If any re-testing is needed, follow up session is booked and task is filed

We won't do acceptance testing on this project and it has been released to Beta. We will do acceptance testing on IA2.1 (further improvements to search) before releasing from Beta to production.
