Testing Update: User Stories Help Improve Testing Outcomes
A key contributor to End-to-End (E2E) testing success is the collection of user stories created with input from business units involved in UT Works testing. User Stories, which are comprehensive real-world scenarios, allow testers to use the system the same way their co-workers will use UT Works after go-live. Being able to evaluate how UT Works will perform in “on-the-job” situations is key to the successful adoption of the system.
Engagement Sets Stage for ReADY Success
Because the ReADY request forms system represents the piece of UT Works that the widest-ranging segment of the UT Community will interact with, the UT Works Program chose to engage with campus early and often.
Aligning Security Roles with Training
The mapping and assigning of security roles play an important part in the planning process for UT Works as we move toward training future users.
Looking Ahead
Look for the following activities to continue or begin during Summer 2024.
- Ongoing — UT Works Demonstration Sessions
- Now–August — End-to-end testing for O&M, CPPM, and ReADY request forms
- August — Device Training for UT Works mobile users
- August — Pilot Training to evaluate UT Works training materials
- September — Change Management Coaching begins
