Your systems analysis team is close to completing a system for Meecham Feeds. Roger is quite confident that the programs that he has written for Meecham’s inventory system will perform as necessary, because they are similar to programs he has done before. Your team has been very busy and would ideally like to begin full systems testing as soon as possible. Two of your junior team members have proposed the following:
a. Skip desk checking of the programs (because similar programs were checked in other installations; Roger has agreed).
b. Do link testing with large amounts of data to prove that the system will work.
c. Do full systems testing with large amounts of live data to show that the system is working.
Respond to each of the three steps in their proposed test schedule. Use a paragraph to explain your response.
