To keep the project on schedule, Anne requested that she be allowed to assign three programmers from the CD selections programming staff to develop the three major parts of the Internet Sales System. The first was the Web interface, both the client side (browser) and the server side. The second was the client-server-based management system (managing CD information and marketing materials data bases). The third was the interfaces between the Internet Sales System and CD selections’ existing distribution system and the credit card center. Programming went smoothly and despite a few minor problems went according to plan. While Anne and the programmers were working, Alec began developing the test plans. The test plans for the three components were similar, but slightly more intensive for the Web interface component.   a)  You are required to help Alec design the test plan. b)  Explain and argue on why these tests are needed.
