Testing an upgrade /install


1. Core functionality of the server and related services
2. Validate and test  Foundation elements and supporting data
3. Use User guides to  test  base functionality of each ITSM application
4. Test all  Integration's within ITSM and outside (LDAP, SSO etc)
5, Provide key users access to test  their day to day processes
6. Stress/ Performance testing ( can't tell you how many times this one has bit 
me )


Hope this helps a wee bit

Well, those that have would not likely be able to share those documents, 
because they would be the proprietary property of either their consulting 
agency or the client.


That being said, a generic plan would simply be to test the processes that the 
ITSM products use.  Set up some configuration data, to be sure that the 
back-end forms are populated.  Set up a simple approval process, and be sure 
that you test that it works.  Create a record via email, and test that outgoing 
ones work, too.  Any plug-in (like LDAP or WS) that you use should be tested.  
Anything that runs as a separate daemon or service should be tested.  Be sure 
that you can access the CMDB from both the Atrium console and from ITSM.


It's not rocket surgery.

I find it hard to belive that not a consultant out there has ever gone through 
an upgrade/deployment and had to have the user population test the newley stood 
up system. Does not have to be an official BMC doc. Just any company that has 
UATd 7.1 ot 7.6. However, my google searches did yield anything either.

 I ready it the same way you did.  I wish you
 luck on finding such a document from BMC (and not paying
 Professional Services for it).

 OK -- I completely misread the original post
 by Scott Hallenger. I
 thought he was looking for a UAT test plan... He was just
 looking for the upgrade plan. My bad.
 But if anyone
 knows if a BMC "blessed" UAT plan exists, strictly
 for OOB functionality, that would be awesome
 too!

 Yep - I've looked at the files attached
 to KA404409 (and the
 other related AMIGO pages) and there is nothing that looks
 like a post-upgrade test-plan that could be used to UAT the
 out-of-the-box ITSM -- a test plan that exercises
 the out-of-the-box
 modules to validate out-of-the-box
 functionality.
 Perhaps BMC took
 it down for some reason...

 Paged through every Remedy/Atrium/ITSM
 "Amigo" related page I could find and the only
 spreadsheet I saw was for sizing recommendations.

 Like always with BMC docs,
 this spreadsheet is going to be as easy to find as
 Bigfoot...

 Claire/Scott -

 Can you post a link to this AMIGO program
 you're referring to?  I can't seem to find it
 within the Documentation section on BMC's site.

 Thanks,

 Rob D.

  Look at the AMIGO program in the DOCS
 section on BMC.  There is a great spreadsheet there that is
 basically your plan.

 Subject: Remedy Test Plan

 Would anyone be willing to share a remedy post
 migration/upgrade plan that they may have laying around. Any
 version from 7.1 on would be ok. Any info is better than no
 info. Thanks in advance my fellow listers......
