HP0-M31 Quality Center Certification Preparation 6 - Dashboard Module

ANALYSIS

1)      In the Dashboard module, you create, view and manage graphs, standard reports, and Excel reports, for analyzing Quality Center data. You also create dashboard pages that display multiple graphs side-by-side. You define analysis items — graphs, standard reports, Excel reports — and dashboard pages using the Dashboard module.

2)      The Dashboard module includes two tabs: The Analysis View tab and the Dashboard View tab.

3)      The Analysis View tab contains a tree in which you organize all of your analysis items. Analysis items can be any of the following analysis types: graphs, standard reports, and Excel reports.

4)      You create graphs, standard reports, and Excel reports in the Analysis View tab of the Dashboard module.

5)      The Dashboard View tab contains a tree in which you organize dashboard pages. In Dashboard pages you arrange multiple graphs that you created in the analysis tree, and display them in a single view.

6)      You create dashboard pages in the Dashboard View tab of the Dashboard module.

7)      Analysis and Dashboard trees. Structures of private and public folders that contain your analysis items and dashboard pages.

8)      Each tree consists of Private and Public root folders. Under each root folder you develop separate trees. Analysis items or dashboard pages that you create in a public folder are accessible to all users. Analysis items or dashboard pages that you create in a private folder are accessible only to the user who created them. Public dashboard pages can include only public graphs. 

9)      Analysis items and dashboard pages in public folders may show different results for different users, depending on the data hiding definitions for the user group.

10)   The analysis or dashboard folder names cannot include the following characters: \ ^ *

HP0-M31 Quality Center Certification Preparation 5 - Defects Module

DEFECTS

1)      Locating and repairing application defects efficiently is essential to the development process. Defects can be detected and added to your Quality Center project by users during all stages of the application management process. Using the Quality Center Defects module, you can report design flaws in your application, and track data derived from defect records.

2)      Fields related to release management are not available in the Defects module if you are working with the Starter Edition.

3)      The defects tracking workflow consists of the following: Add Defects, Review New Defects, Repair Open Defects, Test New Build, Analyze Defect Data.

4)      You can associate the new defect with the cycle and release in which it was detected.

5)      You can link the new defect with the test you ran, for future reference. You can also link defects to other Quality Center entities, such as requirements, tests and other defects. You can also view, update, and analyze defects in the project.

6)      Review all new defects in the project and decide which ones to fix. This task is usually performed by the project manager. Change the status of a new defect to Open, and assign it to a member of the development team.

7)      While reviewing new defects, if duplicate defects appear in the project, change their status to either Closed or Rejected, or delete them from the project.

8)      Fix the Open defects. This involves identifying the cause of the defects, and modifying and rebuilding the application. These tasks are performed by application developers. When a defect is repaired, assign it the status Fixed.

9)      Run tests on the new build of the application. If a defect does not recur, assign it the status Closed. If a defect is detected again, assign it the status Reopen, and return to the previous stage. This task is usually performed by the quality assurance manager or project manager.

10)   View data from defect reports to see how many defects were resolved, and how many still remain open. As you work, you can save settings that are helpful in the defect-tracking process, and reload them as needed.

HP0-M31 Quality Center Certification Preparation 3 - Test Plan Module

TEST PLAN

1. Developing a clear and concise test plan is fundamental to successful application testing. A good test plan enables you to assess the quality of your application at any point in the application management process.
2. Developing a test plan consists of the following: Define Testing Strategy, Define Test Subjects, Design Tests, Create Requirements Coverage, Design Test Steps, Automate Tests, Analyze Test Plan, Establish Baseline.
3. The test plan tree is a graphical representation of your test plan. It is a hierarchical list of tests organized according to topic, which describes the set of tests you will implement in order to meet your quality requirements.
4. You can link a test to specific defects.
5. You can include parameters in your manual tests. This enables you to run the same test repeatedly and assign the parameters different values.
6. Link each test in the test plan tree with a requirement or requirements in the requirements tree. By defining requirements coverage for a test, you can keep track of the relationship between the tests in your test plan and your original requirements.
7. For manual tests you define steps, execute them on your application, and record the results of each step. Use manual tests in cases where the test requires a response by the tester. Manual tests include usability tests, onetime tests, tests that need to be run immediately, tests requiring knowledge of the application, and tests without predictable results.
8. You can include a step that calls another manual test. This is useful if you have common steps that you want to perform as part of other tests.
9. Automating a test allows unattended execution of the test at high speed. It also makes the test reusable and repeatable.
10. We automate functional, benchmark, unit, stress and load tests, as well as tests requiring detailed information about applications.

HP0-M31 QC Certification Preparation 1 - Releases Module

1)      The Releases module is available for Quality Center Enterprise Edition and Quality Center Premier Edition.
2)      The foundation of the Releases module is the releases tree. This tree enables the modeling of upcoming releases within a hierarchical tree structure.
3)      A release represents a group of changes in one or more applications that will be available for distribution at the same time. After defining the release, you define cycles.
4)      A cycle is a set of development and quality assurance efforts performed to achieve a common goal based on the release timeline.
5)      After defining the releases tree, you define and review the requirements in the Requirements module and assign them to releases and cycles.
6)      Requirements describe in detail your application needs.
7)      Requirements are used as a basis for the test plan in the Test Plan module. The tests you create during the test plan phase should cover these requirements.
8)      After assigning requirements to releases and cycles, you assign each test set folder in the Test Lab module to a cycle.
9)      A test set is a group of test instances in a Quality Center project designed to achieve specific test goals.
10)   If an application flaw is detected while running a test set, you can submit a defect. Quality Center automatically creates a link between the test run, associated release and cycle, and the new defect.
11)   While reviewing and deciding which new defects need to be fixed, they can be assigned to the appropriate target release and cycle.
