Requirements
Develop a plan to validate (test) the proposed information workflow change from the workflow diagram and analysis assignment week 1 that demonstrates all the resources and processes required to ensure that your proposed change(s) work as designed without unintended consequences. Develop a plan that considers scope, schedule, acceptable deliverables (desired end products), resources (human, hardware, software, network and/or other equipment, space, budget), risks, and contingencies to validate changes and deliverables BEFORE change would be introduced into a live system. While you may not know exactly how long this would take or all of the resources required put on your thinking cap to propose a timeframe, budget, etc. Make this plan specific to your proposed change(s).

Test Plan
According to Evans (2019), the end goal for software development is to achieve all set deliverables and deliver a quality product. To do this, adequate testing of the software and the system is needed to avoid major defects or errors after the system is installed, which can be significantly costly. One systematic way used to test software is the test plan. This demands a comprehensive understanding of the final workflow. It identifies the scope and schedule of testing, deliverables, acceptable outcomes, risks, and potential events (Evans, 2019). Developed in this paper is a test plan for the proposed information workflow for organ donor status. It also discusses the methodology used for testing and its advantages and disadvantages.
