SOFTWARE TESTING

Most organization set standards for documentation and coding for their ease communication convenience within the internal staff of the organization, Documentation standards are set of rules of preparing documentation. Documentation Standards specifies how to capture information of the particular test and its result. Documentation Standards: Most organization set standards for documentation and coding for their ease communication convenience within the internal staff of the organization, Documentation standards are set of rules of preparing documentation.…

Testing itself is considered to be a unique project on its own., planning, execution, tracking and periodical reporting is essential. In this chapter we will see how can we plan to manage all these activities, so that the effective testing can be done in the designated time period. Every project has definite beginning and definite end. The product or service is different in some distinguish way from all similar products or services. Because of…

System testing is defined as a testing phase conducted on the complete integrated system, to evaluate the system compliance with its specified requirements. A system is complete set of integrated components that together deliver product functionality and features. System Testing: Overview A system can also be defined as a set of hardware, software and other parts that together provide product features and solutions. On the functional side, system testing focus on real-life customer usage…

The system development phases involve many activities where chances of human errors are huge with unit testing. Logical error, carelessness, improper communication, the need to hurry through the whole process of software development due to time constraint, cost constraint etc. The system must be tested thoroughly so that such errors are detected and corrected ae soon as possible. The systems are not designed as entire system and they are not tested as a single…

This method is the oldest structural testing technique. It is based on the control structure of the path testing program. Based on the control structure. a flow graph is prepared and all the possible paths can be covered and executed during testing. This method is useful for detecting more errors. However, if a program contains loops may have an infinite number of possible paths and it is not practical to test all the paths.…

Decision Tables in boundary value analysis and equivalence class partitioning do not consider combinations of input conditions, but consider each input separately. A decision table is a good way to test the system behaviour for different combination of inputs It is useful to determine the test scenarios for complex business logic. It is a systematic approach where the different input combinations and their corresponding system behaviour are captured in a tabular form. This table…

BLACK BOX TESTING is defined as a dynamic testing technique in which of the Application Under Test (AUT) is tested without looking at the internal code structure, implementation details and knowledge of internal paths of the software. This type of testing is based entirely on software requirements and Specifications. In Black Box Testing have just focus on inputs and output of the software system without bothering about internal knowledge of the software. this also…

Software testing is a process of executing a program with the aim of finding the error. Principles to make our software perform perfect, it should be error and bug free. If testing is done successfully it will remove all the errors and bugs from the software with all Principles of Testing. Principles of Testing: Testing shows presence of defects Exhaustive testing is not possible Early testing Defect clustering Pesticide paradox Testing is context dependent…

The process or method of finding error/s in a software testing application or program the application functions according to the end user's requirement is called software testing. It involves execution of software/system components using manual or automated tools to evaluate one or more properties of interest. The purpose of software testing is to 1dentify errors, gaps or missing requirements in contrast to actual requirements. Role of Software Testing: The role of testing in software…
