Installation Tester
Brief introduction to Installation testing
Installation testing is often the most under tested area in testing. This type of
testing is performed to ensure that all Installed features and options function
properly. It is also performed to verify that all necessary components of the application
are, indeed, installed. The testing process may involve full, partial or upgrades
install/uninstall processes.
If your installation is successful on the new system then customer will be definitely
happy but what if things are completely opposite. If installation fails then our
program not only won't work on that system but also can leave user's system badly
damaged. User might require reinstalling the full operating system. So installation
testing is very important.

Our experience
Via accomplishing several installation testing projects, Nova installation testers
have some installation testing tips. Briefly described as follows:
- Use flow diagrams to perform installation testing.
- If you have previously installed compact basic version of application then in next
test case install the full application version on the same path as used for compact
version.
- If you are using flow diagram to test different files to be written on disk while
installation then use the same flow diagram in reverse order to test uninstallation
of all the installed files on disk.
- Use flow diagrams to automate the testing efforts. It will be very easy to convert
diagrams into automated scripts.
- Test the installer scripts used for checking the required disk space.
- Use software's available freely in market to verify registry changes on successful
installation.
