Test Product Management The author, Ricardo Eights, using NetBeans for development When a change is made the new version is put up on the website: Old versions are still kept for back up purposes

Automation Difficulties Most potential tools are not free. Free source tools requires expert skills in Java to implement the automation – Contained execution issues.

Automation: Future Work Link up with a Java expert for the possibility of implementing the Automation. Our default option will be to create enough test cases that will satisfy the agreement of whether or not testing is sufficient.

Technical Challenges It seems that when certains bugs are fixed, more bugs appear At times a mixture of bugs appear after a fix has occured. Tools for gui application automation seems intangible

Future Work Inspections – Will Occur on the LOC for Printing and Saving Reason: Seems to be one of the bigger problems – Roles: Author – Ricardo Inspectors – Jude, Chi, and Preston Reader – Sabrina Moderator - Jamilia
