The primary purpose of this testing is to validate the functionality of the systems which are interacting with the system under test.
These systems are not directly affected by the requirements. However, they use data from the system under test. It is important to test the interface and different types of messages like Job Successful, Job Failed, Database updated, etc. Regression Testing is a common phase in any type of testing project.
This testing in Mainframes ensures that batch jobs and the online screens which do not directly interact with the system under test or do not come in the scope of requirements are not affected by the current project release. In order to have effective regression testing, a particular set of test cases should be shortlisted depending on their complexity and a regression bed Test cases repository should be created.
This set should be updated whenever there is a new functionality rolled out into the release. Step 5 : Performance Testing. This testing is done to identify the bottlenecks in high hit areas like front end data, upgrading online databases and to project the scalability of the application.
Step 6 : Security Testing. This testing is done to evaluate how well the application is designed and developed to counter anti-security attacks. Two fold security testing should be done on the system — Mainframe security and Network security. Test Reporting — Defect should be logged if the actual result deviates from expected. Testers should be involved in the SDLC from the requirements phase onwards.
This will help to verify if the requirements are testable. There may be situations where existing data should be reused as per the requirement. It is sometimes difficult to identify the required data from the existing data. For data setup, homegrown tools can be used as per the need. For fetching existing data, queries should be built in advance.
In case of any difficulty, a request can be placed to data management team for creating or cloning required data. Job Setup.
