Here are some of the non-conformities identified during the evaluation
process for different types of testing:
Static assessments: (documentation generated in the system)
1. Format errors according to the rules of the templates proposed.
Functional tests:
1. Some of the features described in the requirements that
were agreed with the client are missing and sometimes were
poorly implemented.
2. When data are inserted into the system detected a problem
with validation.
Testing environment:
1. Used terms and abbreviations that are not previously defined.
2. The link did not work properly.
Evaluation of training materials:
1. There were different types of resources and, there are only
images.

1. Not all tutors have extensive experience as online tutors.
2. The program provides students throughout the course of the
existence of technical mentoring for troubleshooting.
Strategy assessment and learning process:
1. The complexity of the tasks is not appropriate to the content
and in relation to teaching skills of students.

by the tutors.
Conclusions
The rapid and expansive growth of e-learning requires research
on the impact of this new educational and technological alternative.
Currently for the evaluation of e-learning systems many
people follow the trend of putting pedagogy over technology. The
union of the quality of the product with the quality of testing education,
removes the tendency to evaluate separately the aspects
of technology and pedagogy. If educational and technological objectives
of a system do not match with the expected results, the
system is not usable and leads to failure. The proposal has identified
a procedure for introducing both perspectives, for development
testing used automated tools, checklists and manual tests.
The intention the research proposal is that today‘s e-learning
platforms have the required quality..
