Bank Application Test Cases

Bank Application Transactions Test Case Template

 In this post, we are going to learn how to write test cases for Bank Transactions. And in our previous post, we also Amazon Search Functionality test case templates. Each bank has its flow for money transfer.

So it is hard to generalize the flow for all the banks. So I am attempting to come up with a stream that most of the banks are likely to have in their money transfer process. You may find a lot of difference depending on the type of bank that you are using. 

But before starting writing the test scenario of bank application test cases, you have to understand below things:

What is internet banking?

In internet banking, bother customers and organizations are using an electronic method for money transfer using a web application. Currently, in the 21st century, most of the peoples are used this method to money transfer because of its faster and also no need to wait for a long time in the queue for doing a single transaction.

By using this method, you can able to various operation related money transfer like receive money, pay bills, and so many other operations as well.

But when you are dealing with any bank application, both the developer and testers ensure that the app is running smoothly on all browsers and devices. And the web application also secures from all cyber threats, and the performance also doesn’t go down during peak business hours.

Bank Application Testing

There are several aspects QA specialists prioritize when testing any Bank Application:

• Functionality Testing: All modules are working as expected (both as an independent element & after integrating all separate modules)
• Usability Testing: Most of the time, who are using banking applications that are not proficient PC users. So for them, the form should be clear and have a user-friendly interface.
• Performance Testing: As this is developed for the users, so the performance of the application should be faster. And the app should be working correctly on various platforms.
• Security Testing: As by using a banking application, peoples are going to use for money transfer. So its one of the high priority tasks for the organization to develop the app in such a way that it meets standard guidelines of security.

So in this post, we are going to discuss the natural flow of the Bank Application with some basic scenarios:

Test Steps for Bank Transactions

So here are the necessary steps which we follow when we perform any currency transfer operation:

• Go to the bank website login page.
• Input username and password.
• Go to the money transfer page.
• Add the beneficiary to whom you want to transfer money.
• Check the details of the bank account and person. Verify if they are correct.
• Select the specific money transfer method from NEFT/RTGS or SWIFT transfer options.
• Select the beneficiary name, funds, and then submit the details.
• Verify the amount and other details on the verification page.
• Click submit for the final action of fund transfer.

Whatever steps you are seen above, that is the fundamental flow that we cover here. And maybe if you go to another region, then it may be something different from the above scenario.

For example, some of you may have SMS authentication before sending the money. Some of you are likely to have other means of verifying the details of the beneficiary to avoid sending the money to the wrong person. But that being said, flow is pretty much the same for most banks.

Another difference process followed by different banks maybe when you are going to add a beneficiary whatever fields you are now seeing in the below image possibly vary from bank to bank. So the picture below shows the number of fields that you can validate and write test cases for as well.

If you add the test cases for each page, then the test cases will be a lot covering the essential aspects of the tests.
