The test basis is the collection of documents that provide the basis for testing, such as requirements, design documents, user manuals, etc. The test analyst examines the test basis to understand the scope and objectives of testing, as well as the risks and assumptions involved. This task is performed during the test analysis phase, which is the first phase of the test process. References =

The test conditions are the inputs and outputs that are used to define the scope and objectives of testing. They should be understandable by business stakeholders because they affect their expectations and satisfaction with the software product. Business stakeholders can provide valuable feedback to the test analyst on the test conditions, such as clarifying any ambiguities, suggesting any changes, or identifying any gaps or risks. References =

Installability testing is a type of non-functional testing that focuses on verifying that the software can be installed, upgraded, and uninstalled without errors or interruptions1. It is usually performed by a technical test analyst who has knowledge of the installation requirements, dependencies, and configurations2. The main objectives of installability testing are to ensure that the software is compatible with different platforms, environments, and hardware specifications, and that the installation and de-installation processes are functional, reliable, and secure3. Usability issues, such as the clarity, simplicity, and efficiency of the installation and de-installation user interfaces, are not the primary concern of installability testing, and may be better addressed by other types of testing, such as usability testing or user acceptance testing4. References = Installation testing - Wikipedia; ISTQB Advanced Level Technical Test Analyst Syllabus 2019, section 4.3.2; Mastering Installability Testing: A Key Software Quality Assurance Process; Installation Testing | Complete Overview Of Installation Testing
