Screen Validation Checklist - Validation Conditions
Check List for Software Testing
(Continued from previous question...)
Screen Validation Checklist - Validation Conditions
- Does a failure of validation on every field cause a sensible user error
message?
- Is the user required to fix entries which have failed validation tests?
- Have any fields got multiple validation rules and if so are all rules being
applied?
- If the user enters an invalid value and clicks on the OK button (i.e. does
not TAB off the field) is the invalid entry identified and highlighted
correctly with an error message.?
- Is validation consistently applied at screen level unless specifically
required at field level?
- For all numeric fields check whether negative numbers can and should be
able to be entered.
- For all numeric fields check the minimum and maximum values and also some
mid-range values allowable?
- For all character/alphanumeric fields check the field to ensure that there
is a character limit specified and that this limit is exactly correct for
the specified database size?
- Do all mandatory fields require user input?
- If any of the database columns don't allow null values then the corresponding
screen fields must be mandatory. (If any field which initially was mandatory
has become optional then check whether null values are allowed in this
field.)
