- are you testing environment? You mentioned you can't access the data. Maybe someone else can do this for you?
- Is there a way to implement data in the interface between the server and the gui?
If you can't implement data, you are merely testing…
Some ideas:
* what happens if the data is not in a "normal" pattern. E.g. negative values (if positive required), positive values (if negative required), very small values, very large values;

>> "When a tester is getting the requirements on that product, don't you think that it's required for someone and he may be the direct/indirect customer who is gonna use that product?"
I most certainly hope so. Let me ask you a question. When you g…
Would it organize your testing if you would group the test cases and put them under a test suite? If so, then why wait?

Have you ever been in the situation where one division of a company is developing one part of the solution and another division of a company is developing the other? Two seperate projects which have to be integrated and tested in an end-to-end test.…
Your assumption is correct. But one decision can influence the outcome of the next decision. That is why you do not need an extra tests:
Test 1 with data: A=1, B=2 and D=3:
The outcome for the first decision (A > B) is "false". C gets the value "3"…
A question to all. Why do you wait to improve and refine yourself and/or your process until there is free time? Why do you hold yourself back from sharing maybe vital information which could be crucial to the succes of your current project or the su…
"Customer may or may not be involved in Validation process. The statement actually means that the validation is a kind of actual testing of the product in the way the customer would use it. It includes evaluating the whole software and checking that…
