Test Evidence
In a
regulated environment, it’s never enough to say it works – it must be
proven. Independent, verifiable evidence provides assurance that the
system meets its objectives. An organisation may “know” that their
system works, but may well be surprised by how much they don’t know
when evidence is eschewed. How convinced will an inspector be when
viewing test evidence in 6 months time?
TestDirector 7.5 secures
test results once they are committed to the database, ensuring that
results cannot be changed following execution except by a higher
authority and then with full audit of the change and an approval
electronic signature applied.
Attachment files can be
incorporated into test results. Attachments are stored in a secure
location that can only be accessed via the TestDirector interface and
then with read-only permission. Links to all attached files are
maintained by TestDirector.
A new feature improving the test run
process allows the user to capture a screen using the snapshot button.
If required, a particular area of the snapshot can be highlighted so as
to clarify the main subject matter of the validation checkpoint. The
resulting file is then automatically stored safely and dynamically
linked to the test step in progress. On post test review the test step
displays an icon which provides the path direct from the step to the
screen print.
