Testing the System
• Walk-throughs
– Step by step review
• Processing test data
– Test all valid transactions and error conditions
• Acceptance tests

Systems Conversion
• Direct conversion
– Terminates the old and begins with the new system
• Parallel conversion
– Operate old and new systems for a period of time
• Phase-in conversion

questions:
– Does the system meet the organization’s goals?
– Are users satisfied?
– Were expected benefits achieved?
– Were actual costs in line with expected costs?
– Is the system reliable?
– Does the system produce accurate and complete data and on a
timely basis?
– Is the system compatible with existing systems?
– Is the system safeguarded from errors, fraud, and intrusion?
– Are there adequate error-handling procedures in place?
– Is everyone trained to use the new system?
– Is systems documentation complete and accurate?
