TESTING EDUCATION: TEST CASE PRIORITIZATION USING MATRICES
Marek Żukowicz, Dawid Warchoł · General and Professional Education · 2015
In this paper we describe the problem of assigning priorities to test cases before the beginning of software testing. This problem occurs when testers do not have enough time to test every function. Therefore, it must be specified which test cases are the most important, which are medium important, and which can be omitted incurring little risk of the production environment failure. We describe a method of test case prioritization using a table called the report matrix. Such matrices can be used to introduce some quality and functionality measures of a version of software as well as to allow the comparison between different versions.
