<strong>Test Ideas List</strong> - A list of brief statements identifying tests that are potentially useful to conduct.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Test Ideas Catalog</strong> - A catalog of common faults and mistakes done when developing software.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Test Ideas will describe any of the elements of an executable test.&nbsp;
</li>
<li>
Test ideas ensure the important ideas are not forgotten and are detailed later in test cases.&nbsp;&nbsp;
</li>
<li>
Test Ideas are to be captured at a less-specific level in an intermediate form.
</li>
<li>
Test ideas are more reviewable and understandable then complete tests.&nbsp; Making the reasoning behind the test
idea clearer.&nbsp;
</li>
<li>
Test ideas support more powerful test, by not constraining the tester.&nbsp; Making it easier to create tests that
validate more then just the defined requirements.
</li>
<li>
Test Ideas are often based on explicit and implicit fault modules, to include but not limited to Booleans,
boundaries and method calls.&nbsp; Test Ideas Lists will contain test ideas from many faults models derived for one
or many work products.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Creating test ideas before testing for review and inspection of design work products assists in discovering design or
analysis errors.
