Validate an ALM Upgrade from ALM 11.5 to 12.20

Tags:

Question ID: 106720

Good day to all of you: We’re currently planning to do an upgrade from our ALM 11 instance to ALM 12.20.
We have around 5 major projects with minor workflow at the Defects module as well as a few User Defined Fields within Requirements, Test Plan and Defects.
We will first do the upgrade to our Dev environment and plan to copy our major projects within this server.
Are there any recommended tests or validations that you might suggest after doing the project upgrade?
Your help will be appreciated.
Thank you,
Michael Cho

Hello michaelcho,

After the upgrade is reported as successfully completing, nothing more than routine checks within the projects are necessary. I would recommend that user check that they can add, edit, and delete entities as necessary and allowed, that the attachments are still intact and available for entities (can be tested by viewing a few entities that have attachments) as necessary and that data is available as expected. If you are using third party tools I would insure that integration is still correct and valid. Other than the above noted, nothing special should be necessary.

Hope this helps,
Dan
