Answer 5_7_4

Question 4

Some bespoke software is tested by the software house, but when it is installed at the client's site, its functionality is poor.  Give two reasons why this might have happened.

Reasons include:

• There may be a deadline for the completion, so not all the tests are done;
• The test plan or data may have been inadequate.  Some aspects may not even be tested at all.
• The user may well use the software in a manner not anticipated by the developer, therefore not tested.
