Thanks for your answer,
This was very helpful.
Tell me if I am wrong: a UC scenario is a instance of a UC. UC scenarios
should cover all main and alternative flows and their variations. These
artifacts are created by the analysts.
How detailed should these UC scenarios be?
Should they be as detailed as :
SCENARIO 1:
Message 1
Attrubute 1 = A1
Attrubute 2 = A2
Expected results:
Object1 created with AttributeA = A1
Object2 created with AttributeB = A2
Link created between Object1 and Object2
Message 2
....
plus a written description of the UC scenarios.
In which case, for one use case the analysts can end up with an incredible
amount of UC scenarios.
Or should they only focus on the written description of the UC scenarios and
leave the testers to draw the actual messages?
Cheers,
Jean-Claude

Jean Claude,
well, everyone should provide input for the testers!
It's more the thinking about who owns the requirements that are to be
tested.
Every role in your team provides/influences requirements:
- analysts (e.g. business rules, 'boundary' requirements, ..)
- designers (e.g. RDBMS mechanisms, Messaging requirements, ..)
- developers (e.g. coding conventions, implementation requirements, ..)
My suggestion would be that every role provides specific requirements.
Every (testable) requirement type has an attribute 'Test: yes/no'.
The testers then can filter the requirements and implement the 'requested'
tests. With some integration, empty test scenarios can be 'precreated', and
the tester also has access to further needed documentation (e.g. a
UC-scenario
can be used to navigate to the use case document).
With best regards,
Volker

Betreff: (ROSE) Test scenarios
Hi all,
This is more a question of organisation than a Rose question.
Our project is divided into 4 groups:
- analysts
- designers
- developpers
- testers
The analysts are working on Use Case description and Conceptual Diagrams
(Class diagram representing Domain concepts). They describe use cases with a
flow or events.
Should they take care of the creation of the Test scenarios?
If not, who are the best candidates to create them?
Thanks,
Jean-Claude
