Question description
3 sections that need to be done as separate reports but build on the one before.TESTING
ASSIGNMENT SCENARIO:
You
and your testing team have been tasked with testing a new benefits application
that is being developed. Your company uses a flexible benefits plan, allowing
company employees to customer their heal benefit plan based on personal
preferences. The benefits application is expected to go live in 3 months.
Your
company’s Human Resources department uses a cafeteria-style approach to provide
employees with health care benefits. Each September, employees review their
current benefits, modify their elections and then sign election forms. Any
changes must be entered and tracked in the benefits application. For medical
insurance, an employee enrolls with a preferred provider organization (PPO) or
health maintenance organization (HMO). The company currently pays the monthly
medical premiums for its employees. However, if an employee enrolls in a dental
plan or vision plan, the employee pays a modest monthly premium for the
optional plan. An employee may carry medical, dental, and/or vision coverage
for one or more of his or her family members. In order to carry insurance on a
family member, the employee must carry the same coverage. For example, to carry
dental insurance on a spouse, the employee must also carry dental insurance on
him or herself.
The
benefits application must track employee information like employee ID,
department ID, name, address information and office extension number. It must
also track information about each insurance company to include the company
number and company name. Dependent information and their relationship to the
insured employee must also be tracked. An employee must be able to request an
enrollment form, and Human Resources must be able to update the effective date
of the health benefits on the form. In addition, the application must track the
health care benefits rates for PPO and HMO, plus dental and vision rates.
Benefits rates differ by employee only, employee + spouse, employee + spouse +
one child, and employee + family.
