测试矩阵(test matrix)

JOBSDB_joyce

What is test matrix?
A test matrix is simply a spreadsheet that suggests test and captures test results by laying them out in the form of a table. A test matrix can be used for a number of purposes:
to record a consistent set of tests;
to document a desired level of test coverage based on an intersection of two criteria and, when filled out, to be used as evidence that the desired amount of testing has been done;
as a quick visual indication of how much testing has been done on those criteria;
to help to identify and refine the specific environments in which a defect occurs;
when it is completely filled out, as a checklist to assure that some exhaustive task has been completed.


论坛有对test matrix熟悉了解的人吗?

it is actually side-product of decision table. it is useful when you don't have time to complete test case set. it is a easy way to guide your testing activities

从字面原意看test matrix是由下面两部分组成的
suggests test and captures test results

这两个东西在一起可以做什么？
1 test coverage 做没有一目了然，因为这里要记录test result
2 test progress 测试进度，没有做的当然也看得到
3 协助定位defect吧
4 作为完整测试的一个保证

根据这两项内容的确能够做到上面这些

但是我的感觉test matrix不单单应用这里，可以用在requirement tracement，放入的内容不同，矩阵可以得到不同的视图，尝试变换不同的视图，你会有很多收获
