Designing a Test Case

After a test point is designed (for details, see Designing a Test Point), design a test case to refine it.

A test case consists of prerequisites, steps, and expected results. Set the three parts as subnodes of the test point node.

  1. Go to a mind map.
  2. Under the TP node, create subnodes and enter the descriptions of prerequisites, steps, and expected results. (For details about how to create nodes, see Adding a Node.)
  3. Select a node to which you have entered a prerequisite, and click CO on the toolbar above the mind map.

    If CO is displayed on the node, it is set as a prerequisite node.

  4. Select a node to which you have entered a step, and click ST on the toolbar above the mind map.

    If ST is displayed on the node, it is set as a step node.

  5. Select a node to which you have entered an expected result, and click EX on the toolbar above the mind map.

    If EX is displayed on the node, it is set as an expected result node.
