Cataloguing tips - Biographical work

Generally, biographical work is about story of a figure from birth to old age or death. If a work tells only a part of life. for example school period, can we consider this work as biography?

Yes.

What about if a work contains testimonies from several people about a figure?

Not necessarily a 'biographical work' but could be considered to contain 'biographical content' and there is a code for this in the 008.
