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?


5

Is validation consistently applied at screen level unless specifically required at field level?


6

For all numeric fields check whether negative numbers can and should be able to be entered.


7

For all numeric fields check the minimum and maximum values and also some mid-range values allowable?


8

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?


9

Do all mandatory fields require user input?


10

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.)



S.No

Can the screen be accessed correctly from the menu?


2

Can the screen be accessed correctly from the toolbar?

When the user Alt+Tab's to another application does this have any impact on the screen upon return to the application?


16

Do all the fields edit boxes indicate the number of characters they will hold by there length? e.g. a 30 character field should be a lot longer


S. No

Data Integrity Conditions

Remarks

1

Is the data saved? When double clicking on the close box closes the window?


2

Check the maximum field lengths to ensure that there are no truncated characters?


3

Where the database requires a value (other than null) then this should be defaulted into fields. The user must either enter an alternative valid value or leave the default value intact


4

Check maximum and minimum field values for numeric fields?


5

If numeric fields accept negative values can these be stored correctly on the database and does it make sense for the field to accept negative numbers?


6

If sets of radio buttons represent a fixed set of values such as A, B and C then what happens if a blank value is retrieved from the database? (In some situations rows can be created on the database by other functions, which are not screen based, and thus the required initial values can be incorrect.)


7

If a particular set of data is saved to the database check that each value gets saved fully to the database. i.e. Beware of truncation (of strings) and rounding of numeric values


S.No
