Test script TransVal 3.1 tests transaction validation via screen TRN 003B. According to the
specification (PID ver 1.3 10b iv) the validation screen should not accept future dated
transactions. Test script TransVal 3.1 passes. Test script eod 1.4 tests end of day processing and
is run after the execution of TransVal 3.1 using data entered during that testWhich of the
following is the BEST detail on an incident report?
A. Title. End of Day failure.. Reproducible. Yes. Description. Script eod 1.4 fails when the first
transaction of the day is a future dated transaction.Screen shot of the failure attached.
B. Title. Transaction input screen validation..Reproducible. Yes. Description. Script eod 1..4
fails .Screen shot of the failure attached. Validation of transaction entryon screen TRN-003B
should not allow future dated transactions see PID ver 1.3 para 10b iv.
