All that we’ve talked about so far can be used in suggested form, but I want you to grasp the main thing:

Testing is a creative process and thus assumes a search for perfection.

So, you have to search until you find what’s BEST for your concrete company and concrete situation. Let’s illustrate the creative approach by rewriting our credit card test cases:

Table 1

Test case ID

Priority

Card Type

Expected Result One

ССPG0001

Visa

10

ССPG0002

1

MasterCard

20

AEPL0001

1

AmEx

30
