IT213-4: Apply the debugging process and testing process to programs containing fundamental concepts such as decision statements, iteration, functions and arrays.

GEL-7.02: Apply ethical reasoning to ethical issues within the field of Information Technology.

Purpose

In this assignment, you will be addressing what is entailed in each of the testing levels that will occur in a professional software development environment. You will also consider an ethical dilemma as it relates to software testing and share from your personal experience, perspective, readings and research.

Assignment Instructions

Write a 4–6 page paper addressing the following:

• Define the following four levels of testing for software development: 1) unit testing, 2) integration testing, 3) systems testing, and acceptance testing.
• Explain the purpose of each testing level, and provide your reasoning for why it is important that each level of testing is performed for any software development project.
• Describe how the four testing levels are related to one another.
• Additionally, conclude your paper by addressing the following ethical dilemma providing your perspective on how to approach this decision:

There is a “first to market at all costs” culture that exists at some well-known corporations today. They would rather send out a “buggy” product if it meant being first. There have been many inferior products to rise to the top simply because they took the biggest chunk of the market share before anyone else. If you worked for a major software corporation as a software developer and were assigned a role on a project, what would you do if your manager pushed to rush a product to market without sufficient debugging and testing. What are the ethical implications of delivering a quality product versus meeting a deadline? How would you approach this decision?

Be sure to cite your sources in this paper and use correct APA format.

1. Research 14-1 – Application security or penetration testing methodology.   APA formatting is expected.  Research various application security testing or penetration testing methodologies.  Compare and contrast the pros and cons of each methodology and recommend your preferred approach. 
2.

Write a procedure document for CSI that documents how to change a password in a platform of your choosing.

The document should be detailed enough, and yet understandable enough, for a reasonable, non-technical, non-IT person to follow the directions and successfully change the operating system password without the need to call for support in all but the most extreme cases.  (In the real world, there will always be the the ‘outlying’ cases that defy logic and defy documentation.)

Text should be as understandable as possible and as non-technical as practical.  Remember in a previous lecture that the standard reading level for a wide audience tends to be 8th or 9th grade.  Include a glossary where needed.

Visual aids should be included.  Screen captures or photographs are very helpful to the technically challenged.

For this assignment an Adobe PDF or Microsoft Word or Microsoft PowerPoint (or equivalent application) document will be acceptable.

Tips

This is usually an easy assignment because changing the password in most operating systems is very simple. You just need to describe the steps in getting there.

Most students tend to get caught up in the editing process.  Getting a prototype document put together, including screen captures, is usually pretty fast.  Editing can be a time black hole so be mindful of that.

Ask a non-technical person to read one of your drafts.  If they understand it, and can follow it, you have succeeded.

Scenario:

You have recently been hired as a Chief Information Governance Officer (CIGO) at a large company (You may choose your industry).

Much of this data has been stored in hard copy format in filing cabinets at an offsite location but in recent times, collected business data is in electronic format stored in file shares. Customer data is being stored in a relational database, but the lack of administration has caused data integrity issues such as duplication. There are currently no policies in place to address the handling of data, business or customer. The company also desires to leverage the marketing power of social media, but has no knowledge of the types of policies or legal issues they would need to consider. You will also need to propose relevant metrics that should be collected to ensure that the information governance program is effective.
