Can someone give me guidance on this, I am currently validating a HP migration tool that is being used to transfer operating systems and data from an old server to a new server.
I am going through the entire documentation suite to fully validate but do I need to perform a PQ in order to do this
As fare as there are no user requirements, its hard to define test specifications for a PQ.
The PQ is supposed to give the evidence that the user exactly got what he wanted. I assume that the system you want to validate is a cots software. Means you have no reuqirements specified. Therefore a OQ for testing the relevant functions should be good enough.
