Session Design

  • Overview of current testing efforts in openIMIS

  • Issues faced with current efforts.

  • Brainstorming on improving testing

 

Notes

  • Experiences on testing from AeHIN

    • Have been testing for the past 2/3 years

    • Engaging with country hub partners

    • Universities, students - medical students

    • TestLink tool makes it easy to consolidate the test cases and link to issue queue

    • Onboarding videos of TestLink are useful to orient teams

    • Instructions need to be better for the preconditions

      • eg. Claims

      • Difficult for people not completely immersed in the claim logic

    • Medical Students (3rd year) & Young faculty testers

      • Some, but not a lot of technical knowhow

      • Instructions were OK

      • Issues

        • Bugs in installation processes

        • Missing buttons etc

      • Demo server found to be easy to use

      • Comments are not visible after submission

  • Test cases

    • need to reflect the business processes

    • Update from users

      • implementers ?

    • Specific use case from implementation

      • Add new test cases to the platform directly.

  • 2M Corp

    • did not use a tool to manage the tests

    • stresses on the need for understanding business processes

  • SolDevelo

    • No automated tests on frontend

    • Difficult to test implementation specific functionality

      • eg. auto claim number generation in Nepal

      • Adding descriptions on frontend:

        •  

Testing for implementation specific functionality

  • Need to document the underlying business processes

  • Useful to get ‘generic cases’

  • Next would be the ‘edge cases'

  •
