The main issue you would face is pertaining to writting of test cases, if test cases are not written in proper way then you may face following problems: 

  • For the navigator (the person who will develop the scripts), it is essential that the functional test cases contain good information or he/she has to do a lot of work again.
  • Otherwise, each for project you would be doing the same preparation steps over and over again. This is not the best way to do projects. Test cases document should be re-usable to a large extend.
  • If you would not use initial data, parameters and variables; this would make test cases document less maintainable.
  • Since the test team gets extended all the time, it should be possible that another person takes over your tests: it helps a lot if your colleague doesn’t get vague test cases and doesn’t have to look up everything himself.
