Testing Requisite Checks

An essential component to the deployment of requisite checks that perform as expected is detailed testing.

Testing is a methodical process that requires

• Experience and insight to understand the various scenarios that might be presented by students
  • Those assigned to test should be part of the team's discussion to identify the test cases.
• Planning to collect test cases
  
  • careful consideration should be given to those that might have
    • transfer credit,
    • test credit,
    • grades of Incomplete
    • insufficient academic standing where otherwise would qualify
    • enrollment holds (negative service indicators)
• Proficiency in use of the PeopleSoft registration tool.
  • Testers should know how to add/drop/swap.
  • Testers should understand the desired result for each test case.

It is highly recommended that the user designated to manage requisites have a strong working knowledge of department/college curriculum management policies and protocol, class schedule development, and enrollment (add/drop) processing before embarking on the implementation of requisites.
