Chapter 8. Sample Application
Why Read This Chapter?
Some of the testing concepts covered in this book may seem abstract until they are applied in practice to an actual Web application. By seeing how the features of the sample application are accounted for in the sample test plan (see Chapter 9, "Sample Test Plan," for details) readers can gain insights into effective Web application test planning.
Introduction
This chapter details the features and technologies that are associated with the sample application, including system overview and application functionality.
The sample application, called TRACKGEAR, is helpful in illustrating test planning issues that relate to browser-based Web systems; it places into context many of the issues that are raised in upcoming chapters. TRACKGEAR is a Web-based defect-tracking system produced by LogiGear Corporation. Throughout the book you will see TRACKGEAR used to exemplify various topics. These examples are both in the chapter discussions as well as in boxed text. In Chapter 9, it serves as a baseline from which a high-level test plan is developed.
Note
At the time of this writing, TRACKGEAR 2.0 had been released. This version offers many new features and improvements over version 1.0. For the latest information on this product, please visit www.logigear.com.
