Bespoke pieces of software have advantages and disadvantages.\n\nThe advantages being you largely get what you want - very often bespoke software is written by internal IT departments within companies. This usually means that requirements are generally well followed and the company gets more of what they want.\n\nHowever, it is also very common for a company to buy an off-the-shelf piece of software and have the company who wrote it to make changes - to "bespoke" it, thus giving additional features that they find desirable. This usually comes at significant cost.\n\nOccasionally you'll find a piece of software that is basically "vanilla" - meaning that it comes with little out-the-box functionality and has to be entirely customised. An example of this is Chordiant - a CRM system.\n\nOne of the disadvantages of creating a bespoke system, or bespoking an out the box piece of software is that the company shapes the system to match their internal processes rather than shape their processes to match the system, thus they generally don't derive much benefit, and merely have a new system that does exactly the same as their old system, but perhaps looks a little different.\n\nBespoke software is fine so long as companies are mature enough to realise that real benefit comes from process change as well as system change and to have the two harmonised.

Requirement:  A written list of functions software MUST perform, usually this is written in a standard or specification such as RFC (Request For Comments).\n\nFull Requirement:   ALL software functions listed in the specification are working.\n\nSubset of Requirement:  Only SOME of the functions are working.\n\nAn example:  In Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) HTML v6, there are new functions that ONLY exist in v6, and not v5, or Netscape, or Firefox.  Therefore, v5, Netscape, and Firefox are examples of software that support a subset of IE v6, but only v6 supports all of the requirements of IE v6.  \n\nTo differentiate between full requirement and subset you MUST have a standard or specification.

There are some useful links here. In different issues when you want to have the QA ... there are some factors and criteria's which should be defined. Both in constructing the product and also after the final phases. In web base software, the way you document your analyze and design, your testing procedures, and also the performance of your site is important. You can find related aspects in the following link:\nhttp://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/Web-Quality

For each object some test cases can be put for both positive and negative testing under the white and block box based methodologies.... and all wud be based upon the functionality thats intended of the object... (since thats not specified... it not possible to highlight more upon what they can be)... for various phases... integration,development... based on the V model.

If you mean getting into CASE tools, I would go for Rational (now IBM) tools, as the best in breed.  I would choose Rational Rose/Modeler - for UML designs (the ultimate CASE tool).  See link below for details

Another name for products, services, processes, or plans that are created as a result of doing a project. A project typically has interim as well as final deliverables.\n\nA report or product of one or more tasks that satisfy one or more objectives and must be delivered to satisfy contractual requirements.\n\nA report or product that must be completed and delivered to ensure satisfaction of contractual requirements. \n\nAny measurable, tangible, verifiable item that must be produced to complete the project. Often used more narrowly in reference to an external deliverable, which is a deliverable that is subject to approval by the project sponsor or customer.

First you must plan in what area you want to use SAP system. There are three main categories:\n\n1. END-USER where you can be SAP regular business user to use applications within your field.\n\n2. A subject Matter Expert (SME) to be working in a specific area "Will be explained later" \n\n3. Programming Developer, where you work on ABAP Workbench to develop programs for the end-users as per business needs.\n\n4. SAP Consultant.\n\nto be SME, you must specialize in one of SAP modules. (e.g. PP, PS, MM, FI/CO, WF, HR) In this field you will need to learn only the business work process within a specific SAP module. You will be able to know the database relationship and the business transactions. You will also deal with the ABAP developer to be a functional messenger for the END-USER needs where a report or a program must be developed.\n\nTo be a consultant, you need to know all the SAP fucntional modules and mostly how the database are linked and work within any modules as well as the functionaly specifications.\n\nFor more information, visit the official SAP website at http://www.sap.com under education or career planning.

The purpose of the Feasibility Rationale Description in Software Engineering is to ensure that the system developers have not just created a number of system definition elements, but have also demonstrated the feasibility and consistency of these elements. Its contents should\n\n1. Ensure feasibility and consistency of the other system definition components\n2. Demonstrate a viable business case for the system\n3. Identify shortfalls in ensuring feasibility, consistency, and business case as project risk items for the project plan\n4. Demonstrate that a system built using the specified architecture and project plan will satisfy the requirements, support the operational concept, satisfy the success-critical stakeholders, remain faithful to the key features determined by the prototype, and stay within the budgets and schedules in the plan.\n5. Rationalize life cycle decisions in a way the prime audience (the customer and users) and other stakeholders can understand\n6. Enable the success-critical stakeholders to participate in the decision process and to record their satisfaction with the product and their commitment to fulfill their roles as defined.

There is not one specific Test Case Format, it really depends upon the standards of who you are doing it for.  Every company has their own standards.\n\nHowever, just for reference, I would suggest the following format:\n\n1. Test Condition Description:  A short synopsis of what you are trying to test (and always test for things to FAIL as well as to work)\n\n2. Test Steps: This should be a list of detailed steps to follow in order to complete the test.  This includes all the setup required to get to that point.  If you want to test a program that is printing an invoice, for example...  part of the test case has to be creating the order/invoice in the software and getting it ready to be processed.\n\n3.  Expected Results:  This is a description of what SHOULD happen when the Test Case is run.  Some people like to put expected results after every step of the Test Case, while others put one Expected Result after all the steps have been run through.  It all depends on how detailed of a process you want the testing to be.\n\n4.  Actual Results:  This is a section where the person testing the Application writes in the actual results.  Sometimes they match the expected results, sometimes they don't.  If the two do not match, then it must be determined if it is a bug or the Test Case was written incorrectly.  Actual Results should come after all Expected Results (so if you are doing Expected for each step in the Test Case, you have to do Actual for each step as well)\n\n5.  Pass/Fail/Status:  Finally, I suggest a status on the Test Case.  This should indicate if the Test Case was Passed or if it Failed.  Depending upon the complexity of your application, you could have other statuses such as Passed with Conditions (like a message has a typo, but they don't want to retest this just because you have to change the wording of a message) or Failed Pending Review (they think it failed, but there will be a meeting to discuss if the bugs are critical).\n\nFinally, I think it's important to note that you have a Test Plans and Test Cases.  Test Cases are every single situation you want to test.  You can write general ones like "Add a Customer" to just see if functionality works, then you should have detailed ones that test specific functionality.  Remember, part of Testing is trying to BREAK the software, not prove it works.  So, some Test Cases may involve "bang on keyboard" or steps that you KNOW are wrong, but a typical user might do.\n\nThe Test Plan is an assembly of different Test Cases.  You can have a Test Cases that do some pre-setup of data and include those FIRST in your Test Plan so you don't have to include this setup in every single Test Case.\n\nRemember to be thorough, that is the most important part.  Think of EVERYTHING.  That is what makes Application Testing so difficult... there is no way that you can test every single situation, but test the most likely ones.  Test the limits too.  If you can enter a value from 0-100, test 0, 1, 99, 100, -1, and 101 as well as things in between.  Those are the most likely areas for bugs.
