Efforts/Package Restructuring/Testing&QA

The re-usage of and de-composition into different modules should lead to reduced testing efforts. The assumption basically is, that if all parts of a product have been tested, than the product itself has been tested. Certainly this needs to be verified by control samples.

An example Testmatrix would than look like this:

Module	Deliverables	State
writer_en	OOo Standard 2.4 download, ISO	checked
writer_linux	OOo Standard 2.4 Linux	open
writer_OOo	OOo Standard 2.4	checked

And an example deliverable matrix would look like this:

Deliverables	Module	State
OOo Standard 2.4	writer, calc, writer_en, ...	checked
OOo Standard 2.4 Linux	...	open
Foo Impress 2.4	impress_foo, ...	checked

All modules been checked means, that all products are checked.

Assumptions/Pre-Conditions

• Packages only interfere with dependent packages.
• Packages provide all their dependencies.
