3.3 Output andreport testing
System Testing
• System testing involves unit testing, integration testing, white-
box testing, black-box testing. Strategies for integration software
components into afunctional product include the bottom-up
strategy, the top-down strategy, and sandwich strategy. Careful
planning and scheduling are required to ensure that modules that
will be available for integration into evolving software product when
needed a serious of testing are performed for the proposed system
before the system is ready for user acceptance testing.
•1 UNIT TESTNG
•Instead of testing the system as a whole, Unit testing focuses on
the modules that make up the system. Each module is taken up
individually and tested for correctness in coding and logic.
•The advantages of unit testing are:
• Size of the module is quite small and that errors can easily are
located.
• Confusing interactions of multiple errors in wide different parts
of the software is eliminated.
• Modules level testing can be exhaustive.
29.
• INTEGRATION TESTING
•
•Ittests for the errors resulting from integration of modules. One specification of integration testing is whether parameters match on
both sides of type, permissible ranges and meaning. Integration testing is functional black box test method. It includes testing each
module as an impenetrable mechanism for information. The only concern during integration testing is that the modules work together
properly.
•
•2 WHITE BOX TESTING (CODE TESTING)
•
•The code-testing strategy examines the logic of the program. To follow this testing method, the analyst develops test cases that result
in executing every instruction in the program or module so that every path through the program is tested. A path is a specific
combination of conditions that is handled by the program. Code testing does not check the range of data that the program will accept.
• Exercises all logical decisions on their true or false sides.
• Executes all loops at their boundaries and within these operational bounds.
30.
•3 BLACK BOXTESTING (SPECIFICATION TESTING)
•To perform specification testing, the analyst examines the specification, starting from what the program should do and how is should perform under various
conditions. Then test cases are developed for each condition or combinations of conditions and submitted for processing. By examining the results, the analyst can
determine whether the programs perform according to its specified requirements. This testing strategy sounds exhaustive. If every statement in the program is
checked for its validity, there doesn’t seem to be much scope for errors.
•Testing Objectives
The prime objective of system testing is to test code with intention to find errors. This objective also demonstrates that the software functions are working according
to software requirements specification (SRS) with regards to functionality, features, facility and performance. It should be noted that, however testing will detect error
in written code, but it will not show an error if the code does not address a specific requirement stipulated in SRS but not coded in program.
•
•Testing Principles
• Testing should be traceable to the customer requirements stipulated in the SRS. Test cases should be designed soon as soon as the SRS is finalized and frozen.
• Test cases should be planned from lower-level components and taken to higher level.
• Test cases should address at least all critical key functions, features, facilities and performance needs stipulated in SRS.
• Test cases should not leave behind any fatal errors.
