The Internet has become the body of the business world. This means faults in web applications
have potentially disastrous consequences. Most work on web applications has been on making
them more powerful but relatively is done often times to ensure their quality. Important quality
attributes for web applications include reliability, availability, interoperability and security apart
from ensuring the functional & usability aspects of the Website Testing. Exhaustive Testing is
not possible.

Notes about Website Testing
 Many types of web application tests uncover problems evidenced on the client side using a
specific interface.
 It is difficult to reproduce errors outside of the environment in which the error was originally
encountered.
 Some errors can be traced to the web application configuration, incorrect design or improper
HTML Tags and so on.
 It is difficult to determine whether errors are caused by server, client or the network itself.
 Some errors are occurred in static environment and some in dynamic environment.
