Database Testing Checklist

Database Testing

  • Synchronization between the database and the values displayed in our client/web.
  • Query results, views, stored procedures, indexers Etc.
  • Data manipulation (Update, Delete, insert Etc.).
  • Database performance.
  • Data maintenance.
  • Table’s structure.
  • Data recovery.
  • Data integrity.
  • Others

Clean database testing

  • Verify clean database testing.
  • Input 1st data

Database system-level tests

  • Validate the DB behavior of any case of service failures (recovery, error handling Etc.).
  • Validate that all indexes are created when it can increase the system performance.
  • Validate that appropriate events are created ad sent to the EventVwr/trace log.
  • Validate that DB tables are created with informative and reasonable names.
  • Try to work when the storage is ‘0’ and the e database is in running state.
  • Perform your tests on different versions (SQL 2005, 2008, 2012 etc.).
  • Validate the software security model (User roles, permissions etc.).
  • Validate the connection strings against SQL/Win authentications.
  • Validate data migrations (Different Database, Cluster, etc.).
  • Validate the behavior of the system against SQL injections.
  • Validate date to DB when the server is loaded.
  • Try to work when the database server is down.
  • Try to work with difference instance.
  • Validate restore and backup plans.

Database Integration Testing

  • Check that all columns are set with the relevant data type (Bigint, int, string Etc.)
  • Check that all data is logically organized in the relevant DB tables.
  • Check that each data item is located under the relevant column.
  • Is there any irrelevant data in the software dedicated tables?
  • Check that each table contains the relevant data.
  • Try to insert invalid database values.
  • Verify the data encryption (if any).

Data field tests

  • Validate that “Allow Null” condition is not allowed in a place that result a software failure.
  • Validate that all tables are created with logical structure (Primary, foreign keys.)
  • Validate that “Allow Null” condition is set when you need to allow it.
  • Validate that mandatory fields are created, this issue is very important when you work with multiple tables that depends on each other.

Procedure tests

  • Validate that the data the affected by the procedure is changed as expected.
  • Validate that all procedures are triggered when they supposed to run.
  • Validate that all the conditions receive an appropriate date inputs.
  • Validate that all procedures are created with the relevant code.
  • Is there an appropriate error handling for a failed procedure?
  • Validate that all the loops receive an appropriate date inputs.
  • Validate the procedure’s parameters (types, names, etc.).
  • Test the SP while executing the code manually.
  • Validate important code with SQL profiler.
  • Validate that all procedures names
  • Run tests with missing parameters.

Database and software integration (Client, web Etc.)

  • Validate that the user data is saved when the user “Apply” or “Submit” the changes.
  • Try to insert “NULL” values on fields that doesn’t supposed to receive it.
  • Validate that the user receives the current result when pulling data.
  • Validate that transaction the data type boundaries (Minima Etc.)
  • Validate that empty spaces are not committed to the database.
  • Validate that the values displayed based on the database data.
  • Try to insert UNICODE on Unicode character strings.
  • Try to insert values that exceed the field boundaries.
  • Validate that transactions the negative data values.
  • Insert invalid date format on Date and time fields.
  • Validate that the data integrity is not affected when the “Apply” or “Submit transactions are failing during the process.
  • Validate that the “Roll Back” option is available when the DB transaction is failed in the middle.

Data checking

  • Create Data from frontend and check by Query
  • Delete Data from frontend and check by Query

Mobile Testing Checklist

Platform

Connectivity and Network Issues

  • Check data connection will be used (Mobile operator / wifi)
  • Check if data connection loss while saving data
  • Check if data connection slow while saving data
  • Check both connection are open; Now, lost wifi connection what will be happen; Vice versa
