Overview:

This checklist provides questions to verify that test cases are created in a consistent and complete manner.

Check Items:

• General
  • Does the test case identify the requirement that it evaluates? This linking might be an informal naming convention or a formal requirements traceability matrix.
  • Does the test case reference the preconditions?

• Name

• Is the test case name unique?
• Does the name express a test condition o an expected result?
• Is it unambiguous to a stakeholder?

• Brief Description

• Is the logical test condition clearly identified in the description?
• Does the description clearly state the expected result?
• Is the expected results stated as a concrete outcome?
• Can a casual reader distinguish this test case? 
• Test Data Needs

• Does the test case note the kinds of test data required to implement a detailed test script?
• Are the test data type, uniqueness, and quality sufficiently explained?
