B. Consider the following requirement for a loan system:

“Print a reminder notice for borrowers who have not paid for 30 days.”
What additional information do we need for this requirement in order to build an
acceptable set of test cases for it? Identify at least three items.
1. Name of the borrower
2. Date when they borrow money
3. Check all names who haven’t yet paid after 30 days in the system

C. Identify at least three scenarios that need to be tested to address each requirement
stated. Define any assumptions made, if necessary.
a. Generate one reminder notice for each customer who has an outstanding
balance due and who has not paid within the last 30 days.

 b. The 30-day period is counted from the day when the customer’s last payment
was received or from the day when the customer was last sent a bill or a
reminder notice.

D. Indicate in the blank provided – “T”, if the requirement is completely testable, and “F”, if
the requirement is flawed. If “F”, identify what the flaw is in the particular requirement,
and list all possible questions that will help clarify the user requirements.

a. The wording of the reminder notice must comply with all pertinent
legal and local regulations.

b. Ensure that the notice is generated and sent out promptly.

c. The reminder notices must be mailed in purple 7” x 12” envelopes.

d. For customers who are exempted from receiving reminder notices,

ensure that two notices are generated.

e. A reminder notice is generated only if the customer has an outstanding

balance due on the day the reminder is to be generated. The
outstanding balance is the net total amount owed by the customer on
any day.

f. If the bill was never sent to the customer and a reminder notice has been
generated, ensure that the account officer reviews and approves it
before it is sent out.

g. The software for the reminder notice must be programmed as three

software modules, named X1, X2 and Y1.
