Program Planning Helper

Welcome

There are two versions of this tool. I'd suggest using the simple version which allows you to generate test plans. Remember that the 'Not Sure' button is your friend. If you need a table showing the variables you are planning to use and their scope, you can try the 'complex' version of the tool.

Please use this tool to generate test plans for ...

Expected boundary values for numeric input.
A standard test plan for yes / no responses.
A quick test plan for checking that input is not blank.

Note: This tool automates some of the testing that you might do. You will still need to develop test plans to...

Show that your overall program works for expected values.
Show that your program works for various breakpoints (see the example below)

This tool is not perfect! Here is an example where you would need a custom test plan to check for boundary values...

You are planning a program to work out how much employees are paid. If they work for less than 10 hours, the rate is $10 per hour, if they work for more 10 hours or more, the rate is $12 per hour. When you create your test plan, you would need to manually create a plan that tests for a worker who works for 9.9 hours, 10 hours and 10.1 hours to comprehensively check that the 'break point' is working as expected.
