    Summary of Quick Start Tests for Agile Development 2.0

    The Quick Start Tests for Agile Development 2.0 ensure that the Agile Development functionality remains intact following configuration changes, upgrades, or application development. These tests should be customized for your instance-specific data and are designed to be run exclusively in non-production environments to prevent data corruption or outages.

    Key Features

    • The Agile Development 2.0 plugin and the Agile Development 2.0 - ATF Tests plugin must be activated to use these tests.
    • Tests cover various aspects of the Agile Development process, including story creation, sprint management, and epic updates.
    • Key tests include verification of global rank population, prevention of sprint closure with active stories, and validation of sprint dates.
    • Specific functionalities, such as converting demands into Agile stories or epics, are also tested, provided the PPM Standard plugin is active.

    Key Outcomes

    Running these tests helps ensure that the Agile Development 2.0 processes function correctly and consistently across your development environment. By validating crucial functionalities, you can maintain the integrity of your Agile practices and avoid disruptions in your workflow.

    Validate that Agile Development 2.0 still works after you make any configuration change such as apply an upgrade or develop an application. Copy and customize these quick start tests to pass when using your instance-specific data.

    Danger:
    By default, the system property that is used to run automated tests is disabled to prevent you from accidentally running these tests on a production system. To avoid data corruption or an outage, run tests only on development, test, and other non-production instances. See Enable or disable executing Automated Test Framework tests.

    Agile Development 2.0 quick start tests require activating the Agile Development 2.0 plugin (com.snc.sdlc.agile.2.0) and the Agile Development 2.0 - ATF Tests plugin (com.snc.sdlc.agile.2.0.atf ).

    Test Description Release version
    Verify that global rank is populated when a story is created Verify the global rank of a story after creation. Madrid
    Verify that closing a sprint with active stories is prevented Verify that a sprint with active stories cannot be closed. Madrid
    Verify that sprints cannot overlap in the same group Verify that sprints in the same group do not overlap. Madrid
    Verify that sprint points are updated Verify that changes to stories produce accurate sprint point totals. Madrid
    Verify that only one sprint in a group can have the current state Verify sprint statuses. Madrid
    Verify sprint end date is after the sprint start date Verify sprint start and end dates. Madrid
    Verify that any update on story rolls up to Epic Verify that adding, estimating, removing, deleting, updating, or cancelling a story updates the epic-level roll-ups correctly. Orlando
    Verify changes to the scope of a current sprint do not alter the value of the Total Committed Points Verify that the value of Total Committed Points does not change with change in the scope of a sprint after its state is changed to Current. Orlando
    Verify active flag is set false when Agile Story state is changed to Completed/Cancelled Verify that active flag of an Agile story is set to the following:
    • False, if the state is changed to Completed or Cancelled
    • True, for all other states

    Verify that updating the team/group capacity overrides the capacity on all the future sprints
    Verify that any update to the Group capacity field of the assignment group results in the following changes to the Group capacity field of the various sprints associated with this assignment group:
    • For the sprints that are in the Draft and Planning state:
      • The group capacity is updated to the new value.
      • The Group capacity field is editable.
    • For the sprints in the Current, Complete, or Cancelled state:
      • The group capacity remains the old value.
      • The Group capacity field is read-only.

    For the sprints in the Draft or Planning state, you can individually edit the group capacity of the sprint anytime later. This would not change the group capacity of the assignment group associated with this sprint.
