Creating Animation

Testing an animation

you must produce a test plan for your animation. Test plan to include eg:

• suitable content
• appropriate components
• components work as intended
• whether correct message conveyed
• suitable frame rate
• runs for the correct length of time
• whether the animation loops correctly
• suitable file format

Make improvements based on testing outcomes.

IMPORTANT - You must decide which areas of your animation to test. Your teacher CANNOT provide you with a template identifying the tests to be carried out. Use the list above to help you decide.

YOUR TEST PLAN SHOULD INCLUDE TESTS FROM THE LIST ABOVE:

OCR notes for AO4

You must decide what areas of your animation to test. It is not acceptable for assessors to provide templates identifying the tests to be carried out. Reference should be made to the examples listed above.

You should carry out the tests and evidence this through a completed test plan. Screen shots are not required as evidence for carrying out these tests however evidence of the final animation or the electronic file of the final animation should back up any claims on test plans.

Based on the outcomes of your tests, you must come to your own conclusions and make suggestions for improvement(s). Identifying errors in the animation does not fulfil this requirement. Peer evaluation can be useful for giving candidates ideas for improvement but for credit to be given, you must make your own statement about this.

For the higher levels there must be clear evidence that improvements have been made. This might be through annotated screenshots, or ‘before’ and ‘after’ animation files with explanation.
