The Goal
We are in the design and planning phase of a new climate change-related citizen science web prototype (related to "UN Sustainable Development Goal 13: Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts"). The prototype will be a mobile-friendly website that allows citizens to take and submit photos and other “ground truth” observations to the Trusted Authorities, during /after floods. This information can be used to help the authorities assess and predict the flood or disaster scope and impact.
Help research and create a set of tests that are effective in validation and defect testing. Use your skills and creativity to make sure the web application meets the business and technical requirements that guided its design and developments, and works as expected.
Your Contribution
You will contribute to the prototype test strategy and plan by:
- Building a test plan to test the user experience of the Citizen Science side of the application
- Building a test plan to test the user experience of the Trusted Authority side of the application
- Identifying detailed test cases for the test plans
- Create a test case template and instructions to allow citizen scientists (non-technical people) to identify and report bugs and defects in the application.
At the start of the project we will provide a walk-through of our prototype site and content. We will also provide a wealth of background material on the application, its use case, goals and objectives, and even detailed low-level fidelity wireframes. and other recommendations behind the proposed citizen science web application features.
