List of Software Test Estimation Techniques. Following is the 4 Step process to arrive at an estimate. Task is a piece of work that has been given to someone. To do this, you can use the Work Breakdown Structure technique. In this technique, a complex project is divided into modules. The modules are divided into sub-modules. Each sub-module is further divided into functionality.
It means divide the whole project task into the smallest tasks. After that, you can break out each task to the subtask. The purpose of this activity is create task as detailed as possible. In this step, each task is assigned to the appropriate member in the project team.
You can assigned task as follows. In Step 1 , you already have broken the whole project task into small task by using WBS method.
Now you estimate the size of those tasks. The size of this task depends on the functional size of the system under test.
The functional size reflects the amount of functionality that is relevant to the user. The more number of functionality, the more complex system is.
Prior to start actual estimating tasks effort, functional points are divided into three groups like Complex , Medium Simple as following:. Based on the complex of software functions, the Test Manger has to give enough weightage to each functional point. For example. More complex the function point, more is the effort to test it is. The website is divided into 12 function points, you can determine the complexity of each function points as follows-. Customer Customer: A customer can have multiple bank accounts.
He can view balance of his accounts only. Manager: A manager can view balance of all the customers who come under his supervision 3 2. Fund Transfer Manager. Manager: A manager can transfer funds from any source bank account to destination account 5 3. Mini Statement Manager. Manager: A manager can see mini-statement of any account 3 4. Customized Statement Manager. Customer A customized statement allows you to filter and display transactions in an account based on date, transaction value.
Manager: A manager can see Customized -statement of any account 5 5. Change Password Manager. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed. Background This is the seventh article in a series on applying use case points to create reliable software cost estimates. In the previous articles we discussed: Technical Factors of the Implementation. Characterizing non-functional requirements of the software. Environmental Factors.
Describing the team and the process. Use Case Quantity and Complexity. Representing what the software is asked to accomplish. Actor Quantity and Complexity. Enumerating the users of the software. Final Calculations. Doing the math. Using the Use Case Points Spreadsheet The spreadsheet has five tabs, one for each area of data collection and processing.
The actor analysis section also uses a drop-down to select the type of actor. Conclusion This concludes our series on software cost estimation with use case points. Rodrigo, great question, and welcome to Tyner Blain. Net only for line of business?
Pingback: miguek. Thanks to all. Pingback: Juan Pablo Moya. In such cases, UCP is the best suitable estimation technique. Dependent on goal-oriented, well-written use cases. If the use cases are not well or uniformly structured, the resulting UCP may not be accurate.
Technical and environmental factors have a high impact on UCP. Care needs to be taken while assigning values to the technical and environmental factors. UCP is useful for initial estimate of overall project size but they are much less useful in driving the iteration-to-iteration work of a team. Mudessar Afraz. Previous Page. Next Page.
