Use feedback to improve work
 It is very important that your test plan checks that your game
meets the original requirements of the client brief.
 The text plan must include details on
what you expect to happen when
you test each item and what actually
happens in each case.
 The testing should also identify any
improvements that you can make
with re-tests must be carried out on
anything that didn’t work.

6. Improvements

 The final section of your review links together the two previous
ones by identifying improvements that could be made.
 The first part should state what you
could improve immediately to make
the game better with an explanation
of how it would make it better.
 The second part should say what you
would change in future again saying
how each would improve the game.
 Your test plan and review may both
suggest improvements for this part.
