Approach for :!ing SpiraTeam );+

)he first step is to !efine the high-level pro#ect re'uire"ents:

)his is a hierarchical list of all the features that the syste" nee!sto fulfill 9in so"e "etho!ologies these are calle! u!er !torie!<

)hey can $e entere! $y han!, i"porte! fro" 8*cel, or loa!e!

fro" other tools li3e a"a Contour or 8nterprise Architect

)he ne*t step is to create the pro#ect?s high-level sche!ule:

Inclu!e the "a#or releases, "inor releases an! optionally $uil!san! iterations !epen!ing on !esire! granularity

Bou can now assign the !ifferent lower-level re'uire"ents to

each of the iterations so that it is possi$le to start planning the

features that will $e !evelope! in each iteration

Approach for :!ing SpiraTeam )=+

;ow you can create the test plan

)his consists of a hierarchical list of test cases organi7e! intofol!ers% 8ach test case can have "ultiple test steps%

8ach test case can $e "appe! to one or "ore re'uire"ents

this is use! to specify the test coverage of the various

re'uire"ents%

Any re'uire"ents that have no covering tests are a pro#ect ris3an! a!!itional covering tests shoul! now $e written

)he tests can $e entere! $y han! or i"porte! fro" 8*cel%

inally you can also "ap the test cases to the releases to

provi!e regression testing capa$ility

21/74


Approach for :!ing SpiraTeam )*+

;ow you start the iteration planning:

eco"pose the re'uire"ents into !etaile! pro#ect tas3s that can$e prioriti7e! an! in!ivi!ually esti"ate!% )hese esti"ates can $e

then co"pare! against the top-!own re'uire"ent esti"ate

.otentially re-assign the re'uire"ents an! tas3s to !ifferent

iterations, if there is not enough ti"e5resources to support the

planne! functionality Assign any !efects that were raise! in the previous

release5iteration into the current iteration for resolution

;ow you can sche!ule the tea" "e"$ers an! loa!

$alance the tas3 resourcing allocation: Assign the !iscrete pro#ect tas3s an! !efects to the "e"$ers of

the !evelop"ent tea" staffe! to the iteration

Create an! assign test sets to the various testers% 8ach test set

contains a group of test cases that nee! to $e e*ecute!%

)ea" "e"$ers view their in!ivi!ual sche!ule an! tas3assign"ents to !eter"ine if they can perfor" all the tas3s

)he !etaile! tas3 sche!ule is up!ate! $y the tea" "e"$ers,

with the release5iteration sche!ule reflecting the up!ates so that

the "anage"ent can "a3e changes to the "aster sche!ule
