Script
- Product work testing evaluates functionality of work products, performance of those teams that developed them, and/or other results of the development.
- With regard to the type of requirements that must have been met, product work testing can be divided in two categories: functional testing and non-functional testing. Functional testing evaluates functionality of work products, while non-functional testing evaluates the performance of the development teams and readiness of the work product to be transferred, installed, launched, and, possibly, maintained.
- With regard to the development iterations or phases, all product work tests can be divided in two categories: progression tests and regression tests. Progression testing is undertaken to ensure that newly-developed features are developed properly. Regression testing is undertaken to ensure that newly-developed features do not interfere the proper functioning of the system prior to the recent changes.
- Those user stories that have been used for the last development can be perfectly used for progression testing. Regularly, any acceptance test involves these stories. Vice versa, those user stories that that were used for all the developments prior to the last one can be perfectly used for regression testing.
