Roles and Responsibilities
- Testing Coordinators
- Epic application coordinator(s), and your chosen testing coordinator(s)
- Responsible for setting direction, providing tools, tracking progress, and managing the testing phase of the project
- Application Teams
- Responsible for conducting the actual testing - running test scripts, tracking defects, and resolving defects
What is testing?
What will we be tested?
- Not a typical software testing approach
- Goal of testing is to test build and workflows
Types of Testing
Application Testing
- Application specific
- Designed to ensure that each application's build is functioning as intended
- Focus is on resolving build issues that will impact your primary workflows
Types of Testing
Integrated Testing
- Focuses on complete end to end workflows (Ex. Emergency to Radiology to Inpatient)
- Includes interfaces and third party applications
- Designed to test touch points between applications
Types of Testing
Functional, mapped record, and PRCT
- Unit Testing
- Test interface build and functionality
- Ensure interfaces are operational and functioning as expected for representative cases
- Mapped Record Testing
- Completely test record build to ensure it works properly with interfaces
- Often tested using utilities to test many records at once
- Involves third party validation of output
- PRCT Testing
- Bulk test charging build and validate precision and accuracy of charges
process
Application Testing
- Testing will begin before build is 100% "complete"
- Test - Fix - Test methodology
- Must be completed and passed before integrated testing begins
- Use Sherlock to track defects and issues
process
Integrated Testing
- Pass Criteria
- Script should Pass twice to be considered Passed
- Script must have no actual defects to pass
- Cosmetic defects vs. Actual defects
- Execution Methodology
- Hold integrated testing sessions during which everyone is together
- Handoff mechanism
- Test - Fix - Test Cycle Methodology
process
unit, mapped record, and charge testing
