Installation/Un-installation testing: Your first communication point with end-users.

It’s been almost a year that when I last added a blog post to Software Quality Geeks. Quickly getting towards the topic that today we will be having a look at Installation Testing. This blog post or next few ones, probably soon after this one, will have the same theme that rather than writing too much about the topic we should have a look at bird eye view of any quality or testing topic. Therefore, we will be learning at installation/un-installation testing and its coverage area with help of mind-map or brainstorming diagram.
Installation Testing is very import part of any software, because it usually requires some of sort of changes in customers or end-users machines so it must be tested carefully. Since this is the point when customer first communicates with your application, anything that goes awry at this time can cause enough damage to the business. Therefore, to avoid any potential loss to the business Installation Testing/un-installation testing should be a part of Test Plan and given enough time in testing the application as far as Installation/un-installation is concerned and for that following map can be referred and customized according the need, budget and timeframe.


The post is not open to comments, must provide your valuable ones.


Good luck for installation testing!
