Common use of Modification Testing Clause in Contracts

Modification Testing. This is performed in an isolated environment once modifications are delivered. The modification is unit tested first to ensure compliance with specifications and to validate the performance of the coding. Once unit testing is completed successfully, the modification is tested for integration performance as part of an overall process, paying special attention to any impact on touch points throughout the product. After successful integration testing, modifications are exposed to setup data and converted data by replicating the fully populated databases in the test environment. After successful testing, authorization is requested to load the modification into the production environment. Testing continues throughout the balance of the project to ensure the integrity of the modification. This testing is part of pre-live assessment.
