Considerations for a Successful Software Test ProgramThis paper discusses software testing and software test activities as they should occur during the software development process. It notes that a well planned test program starts at the time software requirements are being produced and continues on through acceptance testing. It describes the activities and responsibilities of the group assigned to formally test the software and discusses their interactions with the people preparing the software requirements and the people developing the software. Three levels of testing are defined and suggested test support software is identified.
