Team Noridian's data conversion test approach uses a state-of-art automationframework and based on using predefined Microsoft Excel data conversion mapping templates. Dataconversion mapping describes the source to target mapping rules to move the legacy data into the eCAMSdatabase format. Team Noridian's automated testing framework eliminates the opportunity for humanerror in data conversion testing by creating automated testing scripts to validate the data conversionprocess was completed successfully.The plan for data conversion testing will be included as part of the conversion plan, executed by TeamNoridian's test team, and the results provided to the Department for review and approval. Team Noridianrecognizes the value of testing using converted data to ensure that the testing activities and results reflecttrue to life examples of the operating MMIS. This will assist in the Departments review and approval oftesting results.Data Certification LetterRFP Section 6.3.2.3.2.1.7Preparation for UAT is vitally important given the number of resources from the Department,business services contractors, Team Noridian, and other contractors that will be involved duringthis event.

This evidence is then compared to theexpected results as recorded in each test case document.When the evidence is compared to the expected result at each validation point within the test case, anassessment of the result is made in terms of pass or fail. Additionally, when the test case is executed tocompletion or completed as far as permitted by the system, a pass or fail determination is made for the8 | 153
