    DRP Test Template

    Use these test templates in order to help create test plans to test the effectiveness of your Disaster
    Recovery Plan.

    We start by deciding how we will do the testing:

     Determine the critical function that is to be tested


     Determine the scenario that will be tested
     Determine what type of test will be performed
     Determine goals and personnel requirements needed for the test

    Next, we actually perform the test:


     Organize the test process (scheduling, etc)
     Run through the test process
     Record the results of the test in the test plan document

    Next, we update the DRP (if needed) based on the test results
     Address next steps and remedial actions that need to be taken

    When filling out the form, be sure to delete any pre-provided information in GREY text and fill in the
    actual information relating to the disaster recovery plan as necessary. Be sure to change all necessary
    text to BLACK before printing or distributing.
    This template has been pre-populated with an example of how a Full Interruption test might be done.
    Change, delete, or add to the example and template as required.
