D: Acceptance Tests¶
Below is a table of the acceptance tests included within this project.
These tests need to be manually run using a copy of the game executable. They involve following a series of steps, verifying each of the assertions in the steps is true, and that the relevant GUI exists to allow the steps to be carried out. If all of the steps can be carried out, and their assertions are true, the test passes. If not, the test fails.
The acceptance tests are associated with an appropriate requirement to allow for traceability, and the tests aim to check that the code works for any associated requirements. Not all requirements have associated tests, and vice versa - this is because some requirements cannot be explicitly unit tested, and some tests do not link up directly to a requirement, but are still needed to ensure the code functions as intended.
There is a criticality measure against each test, for both acceptance and unit tests - this is to represent how important the test is to the overall function of the code. Criticality is on a scale - high criticality means that if that test fails, the project will not function at all; low criticality means that if the test fails, the project will still mostly function as intended.
