TPS report
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- See also: TPS report (Office Space)
A TPS report is a document used in software engineering, in particular by a Software Quality Assurance group or individual, that describes the testing procedures and the testing process.
The official definition and creation is provided by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) as follows:
- IEEE 829 - Test Procedure Specification
- The Test Procedures are developed from both the Test Design and the Test Case Specification. The document describes how the tester will physically run the test, the physical set-up required, and the procedure steps that need to be followed. The standard defines ten procedure steps that may be applied when running a test.'
TPS can also stand for Test Program Set. This is the term used by the United States military and its industrial contractors for hardware and software automatic testing systems.
TPS can also stand for "Transactions Per Second"; used to measure database speed or the number of transactions a financial computer system handles. (Initech was updating banking/credit union software for Y2K, performance measurements could be a normal part of software regression testing)
