Unit Testing


 

 

Unit Testing is the first step in understanding how the application is working or is not working.  It is not that imporant in unit testing that realistic patient scenarios are tested, at least at the beignning of testing.  It is more important to assure that the entire breadth of the application be tested.  Every button should be pushed--multiple times.  While unit testing sometimes begins as soon as the application is loaded as users start to "play" on the system, formal, documented unit testing needs to be performed. 

 

Ideally, formal unit testing should begin when design and build is complete, and all interfaces are written and active.  Often, this is not the case and so careful recording of the non-tested items should be performed.
