Software testing is the process of identifying bugs, errors, and other issues in software. There are various types of testing including static, dynamic, black box, and white box testing. Testing can occur at the unit, integration, and system levels. Common testing methods involve functional and non-functional testing to evaluate different aspects of the software.

Software Testing Guide - Complete Overview in <40 Characters
1.
2. Software Testing
* It is the process used to identify the correctness,
completeness and quality of developed computer
software.
* It is the process of executing a
program/application under positive and negative
conditions by manual or automated means. It
checks for the.
Specification
Functionality
Performance
10. Testing Methods (continued)
• Black Box Testing
* No knowledge of internal program
design or code required.
* Tests are based on requirements and
functionality.
11. Testing Methods (continued)
• White Box Testing
* Knowledge of the internal program
design and code required.
* Tests are based on coverage of code
statements, branches, paths,
conditions.
12. Testing Methods (continued)
• Visual (GUI) Testing
* GUI testing is the process of testing a
product’s graphical user interface to
ensure in meets its written specifications
like testing images and buttons alignment
on any webpage.
14. Testing Levels (continued)
• Unit Testing
* Unit testing is a method by which individual
units of source code together with associated
control data are tested to determine if they
are fit for use.
* A unit is the smallest testable part of an
application like functions/procedures,
classes, interfaces.
15. Testing Levels (continued)
• Integration Testing
* Integration testing is the phase in which
individual software modules are combined and
tested as a group to make verify integrated system
is ready for system testing.
Types:
Big Bang Integration testing.
Top Down Integration testing.
Bottom Up Integration testing.
Mixed/Hybrid Integration testing.
16. Testing Levels (continued)
• Big Bang Integration Testing
* In this approach all individual modules are not
integrated until and unless all the modules are ready.
17. Testing Levels (continued)
• Top Down Integration Testing
* In this approach testing is conducted from main module
to sub module. if the sub module is not developed a
temporary program called STUB is used for simulate the
sub module.
18. Testing Levels (continued)
• Bottom Up Integration Testing
* In this approach testing is conducted from sub
module to main module, if the main module is not
developed a temporary program called DRIVERS is
used to simulate the main module.
19. Testing Levels (continued)
• Mixed/Hybrid Integration Testing
* Testing is mainly focused for the middle level
target layer and is selected on the basis of system
characteristics and the structure of the code.
20. Testing Levels (continued)
• System Testing
* The system as a whole is tested to uncover requirement
errors.
* Verifies that all system elements work properly and that
overall system function and performance has been achieved.
Types:
Alpha Testing
Beta Testing
Acceptance Testing
Performance Testing
21. Testing Levels (continued)
• Alpha Testing
* It is carried out by the test team within
the developing organization .
• Beta Testing
* It is performed by a selected group of
friendly customers.
22. Testing Levels (continued)
• Acceptance Testing
* It is performed by the customer to
determine whether to accept or reject the
delivery of the system.
• Performance Testing
* It is carried out to check whether the system
meets the nonfunctional requirements
identified in the SRS document.
23. Testing Types
• Functional Testing
* Functional tests tends to answer the question of
“can the user do this?” or “does this particular
feature work?”.
• Non Functional Testing
* Non-functional testing refers to aspects of the
software that may not be related to a specific
function or user action, such as scalability or other
performance, behavior under certain constraints,
or security.
25. Testing Types (continued)
• Installation Testing
* Installation testing focuses on what customers
will need to do to install and set up the new
software successfully.
• Development Testing
* Is a software development process that involves
synchronized applications of a broad spectrum of
defect prevention and detection strategies in order
to reduce software development risks, time, and
cost.
Functional Testing
26. Testing Types (continued)
• Usability Testing
* Is a technique used in user-centered
interaction design to evaluate a product by
testing it on user.
• Sanity Testing
* The sanity test which offers quick, broad,
and shallow testing determines whether it is
possible and reasonable to proceed with
further testing.
Functional Testing(continued)
27. Testing Types (continued)
• Smoke Testing
* Smoke testing is preliminary testing to reveal
simple failures severe enough to reject a
prospective software release.
• Regression Testing
* Software testing that seeks to uncover new
software bugs, or regressions, in existing areas of
a system after changes(such as enhancement,
patches or configuration changes) have been
made to them.
Functional Testing(continued)
28. Testing Types (continued)
• Destructive Testing
* Software testing which attempts to cause a
piece of software to fail in an uncontrolled
manner, in order to test its robustness.
• Recovery Testing
* Is the activity of testing how well an
application is able to recover from crashes,
hardware failures and other similar problems.
Functional Testing(continued)
29. Testing Types (continued)
• Automated Testing
* Test automation is the use of special
software (separate from the software being
tested) to control the execution of tests and
the comparison of actual outcomes to
predicted outcomes.
• User Acceptance Testing
* User acceptance testing (UAT) consist of a
process of verifying that a solution work for a
user.
Functional Testing(continued)
30. Testing Types (continued)
• Compatibility Testing
* Testing conducted on the application to evaluate the
application’s compatibility with the computing environment.
• Performance Testing
* Performance testing is generally executed to determine how
a system or sub-systems performs in terms of responsiveness
and stability under a particular work load.
Types:
– Load Testing
– Volume Testing
– Stress Testing
Non Functional Testing
31. Testing Types (continued)
• Security Testing
* Is a process to determine that an
information system protects data and
maintains functionality as intended.
• Accessibility Testing
* Accessibility is the degree to which a
product, device, services, or environment is
available to as many people as possible.
Non Functional Testing (continued)
32. Testing Types (continued)
• Internationalization and Localization
Testing
* Internationalization and Localization are
means of adopting computer applications
to different languages, regional differences
and technical requirements of a target
market.
Non Functional Testing (continued)
