2.1 Features to Be Tested
The following table contains the features to be tested based on ATMS Software Requirement
Specifications (SRS) for this iteration. Listed together are the function ID and its corresponding
functions and estimated risk level.
Function ID Functions Risk Level
F003 Session Verification High
NOTE: All other functions will be tested in iteration 2.
Table 2.1 Features To Be Tested
2.2 Approach Refinements
As discussed in Test Plan (ATMS_TP_1.0.0), test cases for ATMS will be designed using five
techniques which are covered in this section. Techniques are applied based on suitability of
techniques according to nature of features.
The techniques that will be applied are as follows:
i. Equivalence Partitioning
ii. Boundary Value Analysis
iii. Decision Table Testing
iv. State Transition Testing (0-switch: Only valid transitions are tested.)
v. Use Case Testing
Nature of feature as below:
• F003 Session Verification – Transaction Menu is shown after PIN verification.

2.2.3 F003 Session Verification
Five techniques are identified for designing test for this feature, including:
i. Equivalence Partitioning
ii. Boundary Value Analysis
iii. Decision Table Testing
iv. State Transition Testing
v. Use Case Testing
Equivalence partitioning is used to split PIN verification into possible partitions for test.
Boundary value analysis will test the boundary values of the PIN input. Decision table is used to
cover major branches of decision. State transition testing will test for major states of ATMS.

Use Case ID UC003
Use Case F003 Session Verification
Purpose To allow users to start a session and use the ATM services.
Actor User
Trigger User inserts an ATM card.
Precondition ATMS is in “On” and “Idle” state.
Scenario Name Step Action
Main Flow 1 User inserts a valid ATM card into the ATM.
2 System starts a session and verifies the ATM card.
3 System requests for input of PIN.
4 User inputs the correct PIN.
5 System verifies the PIN
System displays the transaction menu and waits for user’s
6
transaction request.
7 User chooses a transaction.
8 System performs transaction.
9 User ends session.
10 System terminates session and ejects card.
System enters “Idle” state and displays message “Please insert
11
your card”.
Alternate Flow – 1.1 User inserts an invalid ATM card into the ATM.
Invalid ATM Card
1.2 System displays error message “Invalid card”.
1.3 Back to Main Flow Step 11.
Alternate Flow – 4.1.1 User inputs an incorrect PIN.
Invalid PIN (1 or 2
times) 4.1.2 System verifies that this is not the third time invalid PIN is entered.
System displays error message “Invalid PIN” and request for user
4.1.3
to re-enter password.
Alternate Flow – 4.2.1 User inputs an incorrect PIN.
Invalid PIN (3 times)
4.2.2 System verifies that this is the third time invalid PIN is entered.
4.2.3 System terminates session and retains ATM card.
System displays error message “Your card has been retained.
4.2.4
Please contact the bank.”
