Even before we go about looking into tips and techniques for doing effort estimation for testing, it may be kept in mind that testing can be secluded as a separate task. It starts with the start of the project by starting to analyzing the project requirements and come up with a test plan comprising of test cases (primarily) and goes on till the end in form of performing the tests. However, it may be good idea to understand different aspects of testing to be done in the project and assign efforts accordingly if the testing includes specific attention due to various different reasons. Also, different software development methodologies such as waterfall or agile have a slightly different approach for overall testing of the software and may need to estimated appropriately.
Also, it may be good to understand what we are trying to estimate in form of testing. Is it just about testing the software to create the bugs or both testing and fixing the bugs? I have seen that later is taken into consideration. However, many could argue that this, then, may not be called as effort estimation for testing as this is part of development itself. 🙂
Below represents the tips and techniques for effort estimation of testing if we are considering testing activities separately and not really considering bugs fixing as part of it. Before we talk about effort estimation techniques for testing on any specific project, following are some of the topics that would be good to understand beforehand:
