Hi Jamie!

>our range of automated testing tools!

As I mentioned earlier, the physical amount of time required to traverse
5000 displays. each with say 4 options and 4 more command keys in all
combinations is astronomical.  An automated test tool would help take the
drudgery out of the chore, but it won't help deciding WHAT screens, data and
application flow are 'good enough' to say that we're ready to certify our
application works with V5R2.

I'm more curious to see if anybody on the list has a methodology for ranking
a function/screen/option/what have you in terms of it's 'criticalness'.  For
instance, if my application uses a calendar function to help schedule
service calls, that's pretty critical.  If it uses a calendar as a
convenience, it's not as crucial.

So I'm not asking HOW to test an application, rather I'm asking if people
have a formal scheme to determine what functions get tested.
