TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I recently made a jump from my former life as an instructional designer to a
new hybrid account manager/doc writer position in software, and have no
experience with some of the technical docs I'm being asked to write.
My current task is to update an old UAT test script with "pretty" formatting
and current procedures to send to a client. My problem is I don't know what
conventions are used to write test scripts. My company has not previously
employed technical writers, so in many cases I'm having to make substantial
changes to existing documents, and want to be sure this one provides a
professional example to our client's IT department.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a UAT test script template or style
sheet example? I've tried searching the list-serv and Web to with little luck
(probably because I'm not sure what I'm looking for).
Thanks!
