DreamPartner dating agency are redesigning their dating application following a major security breach in which sensitive customer data was made publically available. The redesign includes stronger security encryption and performance tuning.
The product risk register for the redesign project, which was produced after all requirements had been agreed, includes the following:
The organisational Test Strategy contains the following objectives:
1. A Risk-based lest approach must be adopted for all projects
2. Functional regression testing should start as soon as functional testing is complete
3. Automated tests may be run before or in parallel with manual tests
The project Test Plan has allocated 6 weeks to complete all test execution, with functional testing taking 3 weeks to execute, performance and security testing 2 weeks each and regression testing 1 week.

I think TS3 is definitely the first one since it relates to security, but I’m not certain about the rest of the order. I wish I had more clarity on TS2 and TS5.

I’m a bit confused about the order. I thought performance testing should come before regression testing, but I can’t recall the exact sequence.

This reminds me of a practice question where we had to prioritize regression testing after functional testing. I think TS1 should come after TS3.

I remember we discussed the importance of starting with security testing first after a breach, but I’m not sure which test suite corresponds to that.

The time allocations are throwing me off a bit. I'll need to double-check my work to make sure I'm not missing any important factors in determining the correct order.

Okay, I think I've got it. The key is to follow the test strategy objectives and prioritize the high-risk areas first, then fit in the other test suites.

Hmm, I wonder if they'll include a feature to check if your date has a criminal record. TS3 and TS4 sound like the way to go.

I think Nobuko might be right, as TS3 is for performance and security testing, which should come before functional testing.

But the project Test Plan allocated 6 weeks for test execution, with functional testing taking 3 weeks to execute. So, TS1 should come first.
