Each student should select a product for testing. It can be any physical or digital product of their choice. Examples include mobile apps, websites, electronic gadgets, household appliances, or even a toy. Choose something that interests you and that you have access to for conducting tests effectively.
Define the objectives of your testing. Consider what aspects of the product you want to evaluate and what specific functionalities you want to test. Think about potential scenarios and edge cases that could arise during the product's usage.
Before writing tests, create a test plan. Outline the different types of tests you will conduct, such as functional, usability, performance, security, or compatibility tests. Define the testing environment and tools you will need to execute your tests effectively.
Identify a range of test scenarios to cover various aspects of the product. Consider both normal and abnormal situations that a user might encounter. Focus on edge cases, which are inputs or conditions that are outside the typical range and might cause unexpected behavior.
Write individual test cases for each scenario identified in the previous step. A test case should include the following components:Test case name/identifier Description of the scenario being tested Preconditions (if any) Steps to reproduce the scenario
Actual results (to be filled in after conducting the test) Edge Case Testing: Pay special attention to edge cases, as they often reveal unexpected issues. Identify specific edge cases for your selected product and design test cases to evaluate how the product handles such situations. Examples include testing extreme inputs, boundary values, or uncommon usage scenarios.

Testing Plan for Room Heating Sensors:
a. Functional Testing:
b. Performance Testing: Assess the sensor's performance in maintaining the desired room temperature over an extended period.
Test the sensor's ability to adjust the heating system based on temperature fluctuations.
Measure the response time of the sensor in adapting to temperature changes.
c. Compatibility Testing:
Ensure the sensor is compatible with the heating system or thermostat it interfaces with.
Test the compatibility of the sensor with different heating system models or brands.
Verify that the sensor can integrate and function properly within the overall heating system setup.
Test Scenarios:
Test the sensor's performance under various scenarios, such as:
Normal room temperature conditions.
Rapid temperature changes.
Extreme high or low temperatures.
Different occupancy levels in the room.
Test Cases:
Each test case should include:
Test case name/identifier.
Description of the scenario being tested.
Preconditions (if any).
Steps to reproduce the scenario.
Expected results.
Actual results (to be filled in after conducting the test).
Edge Case Testing:
Identify and test edge cases to evaluate how the sensor handles unusual situations, such as:
Sensor placed near heat sources or in areas with poor air circulation.
Abnormal temperature fluctuations.
Sensor exposed to direct sunlight or extreme weather conditions.
Reporting:
Document the results of each test case, noting any deviations from the expected results.
Provide clear and detailed reports, including any issues or bugs encountered during testing.
Include suggestions for improvements or enhancements, if applicable.
Remember to tailor this testing plan to the specific room heating sensors you are working with and adjust the steps and scenarios accordingly.
