Topic 7, Scenario 7 “Test Estimation”
You have been contracted to manage the acceptance testing of a new computer-based
reservation system for a travel agency. You have provided an approximate budget estimate for the
testing project based on previous experience with similar sized projects. However, the
management of the parent company of the travel agency will not commit to the budget until
detailed cost estimates are provided.
The reservation system is being developed by a third party However, detailed specifications of the
software are available, as well as an estimate of the total effort that will be spent in developing the
software. The software is to be delivered in four increments, and the functionality to be delivered in
each increment has already been agreed on.
