Manual Testing
1. Introduction to Software Testing

1.1 What is Software Testing

“Software testing is a process of executing the application with the intent of finding the
defects by comparing the output behavior of the application with expected behavior
(requirement).”

In other words it’s comparing the actual behavior of an application with expected behavior.

1.2 Why Software Testing

Humans make mistakes all the time!!

“Software testing is really required to point out the defects and errors that were made
during the development phases”.

We humans can’t identify our mistakes in a work done by us. We should get someone else to
check our work because another person may identify the mistakes done by us. In the same way
software developers may not identify the mismatches in a program or application implemented
by them which can be identify by the another department called Software Test Engineer.

1.3 Benefits of Software Testing

“Software testing helps in finalizing the software application against business requirements.”

Software testing makes sure that the testing is being done properly and hence the system is
ready for the customers to use.

Below are few benefits of software testing.

- Finding the defects before delivery

- Gaines the confidence about quality
- To Prevent defects
- Ensure the requirements are delivered to client

1.4 What is Quality

“Software quality is nothing but delivering a bug free application and delivered
on time with all requirements.”

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 1
Manual Testing

ISO 8402-1986 standard defines quality as “the totality of features and characteristics of a
product or service that bears its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs.”

1.5 What is defect

“A defect is a deviation or mismatch from the requirements”.

When actual result deviates from the expected result while testing a software application
or product then it results into a defect. Hence, any deviation from the specification
mentioned in the functional specification document is a defect. In different organizations
it’s called differently like bug, issue, incidents or problem.

1.6 Project Vs Product

“Project is developed for a single customer on his own requirements by the software
companies and the project will be used by the customer only.”

“Product is developed for multiple customers on their consolidated requirements by the

software companies and the product will be used by all customers.”
2. Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
2.1 What is Software Development Life Cycle

“SDLC is a process followed for a software project, within a software organization. It

consists of a detailed plan describing how to develop, maintain, replace and alter or
enhance specific software”

2.2 Why Software Development Life Cycle

“SDLC ensure success in process of software development.”

2.3 Phases of Software Development Life Cycle

  Initial

  Analysis

  Design

  Coding

 Testing

Manual Testing

 Delivery & Maintenance

2.3.1 Initial

“Business requirements are gathered in this phase. “

This phase is the main focus of the project managers and stake holders. Meetings with
managers, stake holders and users are held in order to determine the requirements like;

- Who is going to use the system?

- How will they use the system?
- What data should be input into the system?
- What data should be output by the system?

Roles Involved: Business Analyst (BA), System Architects

Outcome: System Requirement Specification (SRS)

2.3.2 Analysis

“After requirement gathering these requirements are analyzed for their validity and the
possibility of developing the requirements in the system.”

Requirement analysis is the most important and fundamental stage in SDLC. It is

performed by both development team and testing team.

Roles Involved: Dev & QA team, Architects, Project Managers

Outcome: Final SRS approved by customer, Technology selection for both Dev & QA

2.3.3 Design

“During this part of the design phase, the consultants/architects break down the
system into pieces that can be programmed.”

System Design helps in specifying hardware and system requirements and also helps in
defining overall system architecture. The system design specifications serve as input for the
next phase of the model.

Roles Involved: Architects & Team

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 3
Manual Testing

Outcome: Technical Design Document (TDD)

2.3.4 Coding

“The actual development starts and the product is built in coding phase. “

The work is divided in modules/units and actual coding is started in this coding
phase and it is the main focus for developer. Coding is one of the longest phase of
SDLC.

Roles involved: Developers and Architects

Outcome: Programs or Application or Module

2.3.5 Testing

“In Testing phase testers execute the test cases against the application, report the defects and
retested the fixed defects. “

During this phase unit testing, integration testing, system testing, acceptance testing are done.

Roles Involved: Testers, Developers

Outcome: Defects, Test Summary Report, Test Plan, Test Case document

2.3.6 Delivery & Maintenance

Delivery : After successful testing the product is delivered /deployed to the customer.
During the delivery phase, customer will perform user acceptance testing in a real time environment.
Once when the customer starts using the developed system then the actual problems comes up and needs to be
solved from time to time. This process where the care is taken for the developed products is known as
maintenance.

Roles Involved: Testers, Developers, Customer, Business team, Architects, Project

Manager, and Delivery Manager

Outcome: Quality Product, Enhancements &Production Issues (Maintenance)

3. Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Models

“There are many development mode ls life that have cycle been developed in order to
achieve different required objectives.”

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected] Page # 4
Manual Testing

The selection of model has very high impact on the testing that is carried out. It will define
the what, where and when of our planned testing, influence regression testing and largely
determines which test techniques to use.

3.1 Water Fall Model

“In a waterfall model, each phase must be completed fully before the next phase”.

The Waterfall Model was first Process Model to be introduced. It is also referred to as a linear-sequential
life cycle model. It is very simple to understand and use. This type of model is basically used for the project
which is small and there are no uncertain requirements.

Advantages of waterfall model:

- This model is simple and easy to understand and use.

- It is easy to manage due to the rigidity of the model
- In this model phases are processed and completed one at a time.

Disadvantages of waterfall model:

- Once an application is in the testing stage, it is very difficult to go back and change
- No working software is produced until late during the life cycle.
- High amounts of risk
- Not a good model for complex and object-oriented projects.
- Poor model for long and ongoing projects.

When to use the waterfall model:

- This model is used only when the requirements are very well known, clear and fixed.
- The project is short.

3.2 V Model

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected] Page # 5
Manual Testing

“The V-model is a SDLC model where execution of processes happens in a sequential manner in V-shape. “

V-Shaped life cycle is a sequential path of execution of processes. Each phase must be completed before the
next phase begins. Testing of the product is planned in parallel with a corresponding phase of development.

Advantages of V-model:

- Simple and easy to use.

- Testing activities like planning, test designing happens well before coding. This saves a lot of time.
- Proactive defect tracking – that is defects are found at early stage.

Disadvantages of V-model:

- Software is developed during the implementation phase, so no early prototypes of the software
are produced.
- If any changes happen in midway, then the test documents along with requirement
documents has to be updated.

When to use the V-model:

- The V-shaped model should be used for small to medium sized projects where requirements are clearly
defined and fixed.
- The V-Shaped model should be chosen when ample technical resources are
available with needed technical expertise.

3.3 Prototype Model

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 6
Manual Testing

“Prototyping is an attractive applicate and idea large systems for come for which there is no manual process or
existing system to help determining the requirements.”

Advantages of Prototype model:

- Users are actively involved in the development

- Since in this methodology a working model of the system is provided, the users get
a better understanding of the system being developed.
- Errors can be detected much earlier.
- Quicker user feedback is available leading to better solutions.
- Missing functionality can be identified easily
- Confusing or difficult functions can be identified

Disadvantages of Prototype model:

- Practically, this methodology may increase the complexity of the system as scope of the
system may expand beyond original plans.
- Incomplete application may cause application not to be used as thefull system was designed

When to use Prototype model:

- Prototype model should be used when the desired system needs to have a lot of
interaction with the end users.

3.4 Agile Model

“Software is developed in incremental, rapid small incremental cycles releases. This with results each release in
building on previous functionality.”

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 7
Manual Testing

Advantages of Agile model:

- Customer satisfaction by continuous delivery of software.

- Customers, developers and testers constantly interact with each other.
- Working software is delivered frequently
- Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design.
- Even late changes in requirements are welcomed

Disadvantages of Agile model:

- It is difficult to assess the effort required at the beginning of the software development life cycle.
- The project can easily get taken off track if the customer representative is not clear
what final outcome that they want.
- Only senior programmers are capable of taking the kind of decisions required during
the development process.

When to use Agile model:

- New changes can be implemented at very little cost

- To implement a new feature the developers need to lose only the work of a few days.
- Unlike the waterfall model in agile model very limited planning is required to get started with the project.

4. Software Testing Methodologies

4.1 Block Box Testing

4.1.1 What is Block box testing?
“The technique of testing without having technical knowledge of an application”.

Specification-based testing technique is also known as „black-box ‟or input/output driven testing techniques because they i

view the software as a black-box with inputs and outputs.

4.1.2 How will perform block box testing

“Testing team will perform the black box testing”.

The testers have no knowledge of how the system or component is structured inside the box. In black-box testing the
tester is concentrating on what the software does, not how it does it.

4.1.3 How to perform block box testing

Block box testing covers both functional and non-functional testing. Functional testing is concerned with what the
system does its features or functions. Non-functional testing is concerned with examining how well the system
does. Non-functional testing like performance, usability, portability, maintainability, etc.

Advantages Disadvantages

Well suited and efficient for large code segments. Limited Coverage since only a selected number of test scenarios
are actually performed.
Code Access not required.
Inefficient testing, due to the fact that the tester only has limited

Below is the black box testing techniques:

- Equivalence partitioning
- Boundary value analysis
- Error Guessing

4.2 White box testing

4.2.1 What is white box testing

“Structure-based testing technique is also known as „white-box‟ or „glass-box‟ testing technique because here testers
knowledge of how the software is implemented, how require it works “

4.2.2 Who will perform White box testing

“Developers use -basedstructuretechniques in component testing and component integration

testing, especially where there is good tool support for code coverage.”

4.2.3 How to perform White box testing

White box testing is the detailed investigation of internal logic and structure of the code. White
box testing is alsocalled g lass testing or Openbox testing.

Advantages Disadvantages

As the tester has knowledge of the source code, it becomes

very easy to find out which type of data can help in testing the Due to the fact that a skilled tester is needed to perform white
application effectively. box testing, the costs are increased.

Sometimes it is impossible to look into every nook and corner

“Unlike blacktesting,boxwhere the tester only tests the application's user interface, in grey boxtesting, the tester
has access to design documents and the database. Having this knowledge, the tester is able to better prepare test
data and test scenarios when making the test plan.”

Advantages Disadvantages

Offers combined benefits of black box and white box

testing wherever possible.
Since the access to source code is not available, the
Grey box testers don't rely on the source code; instead ability to go over the code and test coverage is limited.
they rely on interface definition and functional
specifications. The tests can be redundant if the software
designer has already run a test case.
Based on the limited information available, a grey box
tester can design excellent test scenarios especially Testing every possible input stream is unrealistic because
around communication protocols and data type handling. it would take an unreasonable amount of time; therefore, many
program paths will go untested.
The test is done from the point of view of the user and not
the designer.

5. Levels of testing

“In software development life cycle models there are defined phases like require coding or implementation, testing and deployment.
Each phase goes through the testing.”

Hence there are various levels of testing. The various levels of testing are:

5.1 Unit Testing

What is Unit testing:“A unit is the smallest testable part of an applicatprocedures,ion like funct interfaces. “

Unit testing is a method by which individual units of source code are tested to determine if they are fit for use.

Who will perform Unit testing: “Unit tests are basically written and executedtomake by software sure that code meets its design and
requirements and behaves as expected.”

5.2 Module/Component Testing

What is Module/Component Testing: “Component testing is a method where testing of each c application is done separately.”

Suppose, in an application there are 5 components. Testing of each 5 components separately and
efficiently is called as component testing.

Who will perform Component Testing:“Component testing is done by the tester.”

Manual Testing

5.3 Integration Testing

What is Integration Testing: “Integrations done testing when two modules are integrated, in order to test
the behavior and functionality of both the modules after integration.”

As displayed in the image below when two different modules „Module A‟ and „Modul integration testing is done.

Who will perform Integration Testing: “Integration testing is done by a specific integration tester or test team.”

Integration Testing Techniques:

- Top down
- Bottom Up

Top-down integration testing: Testing takes place from top to bottom, following the control flow or architectural.
Components or systems are substituted by stubs.

Below is the diagram of Top down App roach:

Bottom-up integration testing: Testing takes place from the bottom of the control flow upwards.
Components or systems are substituted by drivers.
Below is the image of Bottom up approach:

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 13
Manual Testing

Stub: A stub is called from the software component to be tested.

Driver: A driver calls the component to be tested.

5.4 System Testing

What is system testing: “Once all the components are integrated, the application as a wh see that it meets the requirements?”

System testing is most often the final test to verify that the system to be delivered meets the specification and
its purpose.
‘
Who will do the system testing: “System testing is carried outby specialist testers or index”.

5.5 User Acceptance Testing (UAT)

What is UAT: Acceptance testing is basically done to ensure the specification that the requirements are met”.

- The goal of acceptance testing is to establish confidence in the system.

- Acceptance testing is most often focused on a validation type testing.

Who will perform UAT: “Acceptance testing is basically done by the user or customer although other
stakeholders may be involved as well.”
Alpha Testing: “Alpha Testing is done at the developer’s site. It is done at the end”.
Beta Testing:
“Beta testing also known as user testing takes place at the end users site by the end users to validate the usability, functionality,
compatibility, and reliability testing.

6. Verification & Validation

6.1 Verification
6.1.1 What is Verification: “The process of evaluating work-products (not the actual final
product) of a development phase to determine whether they meet the specified requirements.

Verification is done at the starting of the development process. It includes reviews

and meetings, walkthroughs, inspection, etc. to evaluate documents, plans, code, requirements
and specifications.

6.1.2 Who will perform: Peers (Sr Team Members, Architects, Analysts)

6.1.3 Verification Techniques:Below are the validation techniques

- Reviews
- Inspections
- Walk through

Reviews:“A review is a systematicexaminationof document by one or more people with the main aim
of finding and removing errors early in the software development life cycle.”

There are two types of Reviews held in verification. They are Formal Review and Informal Review.

a. Formal Review:“Formal reviews follow a formal process. It is well structured and regulated. It
contains: Planning, Kick-off, Preparation, Review meeting, Rework. ”

b. Informal Review:“Informal reviews are applied many times during the early stages of the life cycle of the
document. A two person team can conduct an informal review.” The most important thing to keep
in mind about the informal reviews is that they are not documented.

6.1.4 Inspection:

“Inspection is the most formal form of reviews, a strategy adopted during static testing phase.”

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 15
Manual Testing

- It is the most formal review type

- It is led by the trained moderators
- During inspection the documents are prepared and checked thoroughly by the
reviewers before the meeting

6.1.5 Walkthrough

“A walkthrough is conducted by document the author under of the review” who takes the participants document and his or
her thought processes to achieve a common understanding and to gather feedback”

6.2 Validation

6.1.1 What is Validation: “The process of evaluating software during or at the end of the
development process to determine whether it satisfies specified business requirements.”

6.1.2 Who will perform: Testing Team, Dev Team, Client or BA team

Criteria Verification Validation

To ensure that the product is being built To ensure that the product actually meets the
according to the requirements and design user‟s needs, and that the specifications were
objective specifications. In other words, to ensure that correct in the first place. In other words, to
work products meet their specified demonstrate that the product fulfills its intended
requirements. use when placed in its intended environment.
Question Are we building the product right? Are we building the right product?
Plans, Requirement Specs, Design Specs,
Evaluation Items The actual product/software.
Code, Test Cases

Activities Reviews, Walkthroughs, Inspections Testing

7. Functional & Non Functional Testing

Functional Testing: “Functional Testing is a testing technique that is used to test the features/functionality of
the Software”.

7.1 Smoke Testing:“Smoke testing refers to testing the basic functionality of the bui declared as unstable and it is NOT tested
anymore until the smoke test of the build passes.

7.2 Sanity Testing:“Software testing technique performed by the test team for some basic tests. The aim of
basic test is to be conducted whenever a new build is received for testing. “

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 16
Manual Testing

The terminologies such as Smoke Test or Build Verification Test or Basic Acceptance Test or Sanity
Test are interchangeably used, however, each one of them is used under a slightly different scenario.

Sanity test is usually unscripted, helps to identify the dependent missing functionalities. It is used to determine if the
section of the application is still working after a minor change.Sanity testing can be narrow and deep. Sanity test is a
narrow regression test that focuses on one or a few areas of functionality

7.3 Re-testing: “Retesting is executing a previously failed test against new software to check if the problem is
resolved. “

7.4 Regression Testing: “Regression testing is performed to verify if the build has NOT broken any other
parts of the application by the recent code changes for defect fixing or for enhancement. “

The purpose of a regression testing is to verify that modifications in the software or the environment have not
caused any unintended adverse side effects and that the system still meets its requirements.

7.5 Exploratory Testing: “Testing of software without any documents (test cases or test planning) and Identify the functionality of application by
exploring the application and exploring & learni

7.6 Monkey Testing: ”Monkey testing is a software testing technique in which the testing system under test randomly.
The input data that is used to test also generated randomly.

7.7 End to End Testing:“End-to-end testing is a methodology used to test whether the flow of an application
is performing as designed from start to finish.”

The purpose of carrying out end-to-end tests is to identify system dependencies and to ensure
that the right information is passed between various system components and systems.

Difference between System testing and End to End testing:

There isn't really a huge difference between the two and in some establishments the terms could be
used interchangeably. Everywhere is different.

System testing: You're testing the whole system i.e. all of its components to ensure that each is
functioning as intended. This is more from a functional side to check against requirements.

End to end testing: This is more about the actual flow through a system in a more realistic end user
scenario. Can a user navigate the application as expected and does it work. You're testing the workflow.

Non Functional Testing:

7.8 User Interface Testing:“Graphical User Interface (GUI) testing is checking the application design of
an application”.

Ex: Required/Optional, Fields Align, Lengths, Progress Bars, Scroll Bars, Alignments, etc

Website:www.testingmasters.com

Page # 17
Manual Testing

7.9 Usability Testing: “In usability testing basically the testers tests the ease with which the user
interfaces can be used. It tests that whether the application is user-friendly or not. “

Usability Testing tests the following features of the software.

– How easy it is to use the software.

– How easy it is to learn the software.
– How convenient is the software to end user.

7.10 Stress Testing: “It is a form of testing that is used to determine the stability of a given system,
Stress testing involves testing beyond normal operational capacity, often to a breaking point, in order to
observe the results. “

Stress testing is a generic term used to describe the process of putting a system through stress.

7.11 Load Testing: “Load testing is performed to determine a system’s behavior under both normal and
at peak conditions. “

A load test is usually conducted to understand the behavior of the application under a specific
expected load.

E.g. If the number of users are in creased then how much CPU, memory will be consumed, what is the
network and bandwidth response time.

7.12 Performance Testing: “Performance testing is testing that is performed, to

determine how fast some aspect of a system performs under a particular workload. “

It can serve different purposes like it can demonstrate that the system meets performance criteria.

7.13 Localization Testing: “Localization translates the product UI and occasionally changes some initial
settings to make it suitable for another region.” Localization testing checks the quality of a product's
localization for a particular target culture/locale.

The test effort during localization testing focuses on:

- Areas affected by localization, such as UI and content

- Culture/locale-specific, language-specific, and region-specific areas

7.14 Globalization Testing: “Globalization Testing is testing process to check whether software can
perform properly in any locale or culture & functioning properly with all types of international inputs
and steps to effectively make your product truly global.”

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 18
Manual Testing

This type of testing validates whether the application is capable for using all over the world
and to check whether the input accepts all the language texts.

Ex: Let’s see another example of a Zip code field in Sign up form:

- For globalized, it should allow to enter alphanumeric inputs

- For localized (country like INDIA), it should allow only numbers in input field.

7.15 Security Testing: “Security testing is basically to check that whether the application or the product
is secured or not. “

Can anyone came tomorrow and hack the system or login the application without any authorization. It is
a process to determine that an information system protects data and maintains functionality as
intended.

Security testing is related to the security of data and the functionality of the application. You should
be aware of the following concepts while performing security testing:

1. Confidentiality - The application should only provide the data to the relevant party e.g. one
customer's transactional data should not be visible to another customer; the irrelevant
personal details of the customer should not be visible to the administrator and so on.

2. Integrity - The data stored and displayed by the application should be correct e.g. after a withdrawal,
the customer's account should be debited by the correct amount.

3. Authentication - It should be possible to attribute the data transmitted in the application to either
the application or the customer. In other words, no one other than the customer or the bank should be
able to create or modify any data.

4. Authorization - The application or a user should only be able to perform the tasks which they
are respectively authorized to perform e.g. a customer should not be able to withdraw more than
the balance in their account without having an overdraft facility, the application should not be
able to levy charges on a customer account without prior customer approval.

5. Availability - The data and functionality should be available to the users throughout the working
period e.g. if the bank's operating times are from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on all working days, it should be
possible for a customer to access their account and make the necessary transactions on their account.

6. Non-repudiation - At a later date, it should not be possible for a party to deny that a particular
transaction or data change took place e.g. if a customer withdraws an amount from their account, this
should trigger the relevant actions (posting to their transaction records, debiting their account and
sending them a notification etc.).

7.16 Compatibility Testing: ”Compatibility Testing ensure compatibility of the application built
with various other objects such as other web browsers, hardware platforms, operating systems
etc.”

This type of testing helps find out how well a system performs in a particular environment that
includes hardware, network, operating system and other software etc.

Ex: Browser Compatibility Testing, OS Compatibility Testing

7.17 Installation Testing: “Installation testing is performed to ensure that all necessary
components are installed properly and working as per the requirements of the software, post
installation. Installation process may include partial, full or upgrade install. “

7.18 Recovery Testing: “Recovery testing is done in order to check how fast and better the
application can recover after it has gone through any type of crash or failure“

Ex: For example, when an application is receiving data from a network, unplug the connecting cable. After
some time, plug the cable back in and analyze the application’s ability to continue receiving data from the
point at which the network connection got disappeared. Restart the system while a browser has a definite
number of sessions and check whether the browser is able to recover all of them or not.

8. Windows & Web Application

8.1 What is Windows application: “A program that is written to run under Microsoft's
Windows operating system. “

8.2 What is Web application: “Web application is an application that is accessed via Web browser
over a network such as the Internet or an intranet. “

8.3 Difference between Windows & Web:

Windows Application:

a. Windows applications typically run under all 32-bit versions of Windows, but earlier
applications might also run under the 16-bit versions (Windows 3.x) as well. b. Runs
on personal computers and work stations.

Manual Testing

c. Window based app. need to be installed on your machine to access.

d. Windows applications (desktop) need to be installed on each client's PC.
e. Windows application runs faster than Webapplication.
f. Windows application has many inbuilt classes in .Net compared to Web application.

Web application:

a. It is a computer software application that is coded in a browser-supported language (such

as HTML, ASP, PHP, Perl, Python etc.) and reliant on a common web browser to render the
application executable.
b. Web applications are very much useful when they are hosted.Web app. can be
access from any ware in the world through the internet.
c. Web application is tested mainly for browser compatibility and operating system
compatibility, error handling, static pages, back-end testing and load testing.
e. Web applications are programs that used to run inside some web server (e.g., IIS) to
fulfill the user requests over the http.
f. Common Web applications include Webmail, online retail sales, online auctions,
wikis, discussion boards, Weblogs

9. Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC)

“STLC consists of series of activities carried out methodologically to help certify your software product.
These activities are part ofthe Software Testing Life Cycle.”

The different stages in Software Test Life Cycle:

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 22
Manual Testing

9.1 Requirement Analysis: “During this phase, test team studies the requirements
from a testing point of view to identify the testable requirements.”

The QA team may interact with various stakeholders (Client, Business Analyst, Technical Leads, and
System Architects etc.) to understand the requirements in detail. Requirements could be either
Functional (defining what the software must do) or Non Functional (defining system performance
/security availability).

Deliverables:Requirement Traceability Matrix (RTM), Clarification Document

RTM: “Traceability matrix links a business requirement to its corresponding functional requirement.”

If a Test Case fails, traceability helps determine the corresponding functionality easily; it also
helps ensure that all requirements are tested.

Sample RTM:

Email:[email protected]
Page # 23
Manual Testing

Clarification Document: “Contains all clarifications which will arise during the requirement
analysis phase”.

Sample:

Sno Date Module/Page Name Query Description Comments

9.2 Test Planning:

What is Test plan: “Test planning is the first step of the testing process. In this phase we identify
the activities and resources which would help to meet the testing objectives.”

What Test Plan contains: (IEEE 829 STANDARD TEST PLAN TEMPLATE)

Test plan identifier

Test deliverables
Introduction
Test tasks
Test items
Environmental needs
Features to be tested
Responsibilities
Features not to be tested
Staffing and training needs
Approach Schedule
Item pass/fail criteria
Risks and contingencies

Who will prepare the test plan: Test Lead or Test Manager.

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 24
Manual Testing

What is Test Strategy:“A Test Strategy document is a high level document and normally developed by
project manager. This document defines “Software Testing Approach” to achieve testing objectives. The
Test Strategy is normally derived from the Business Requirement Specification document.”

Test plan Vs Test Strategy: Generally it doesn’t matter which comes first. Test planning document is a
combination of strategy plugged with overall project plan. According to IEEE Standard 829-2008,
strategy plan is a sub item of test plan.

Every organization has their own standards and processes to maintain these documents. Some
organizations include strategy details in test plan itself. Some organizations list strategy as a
subsection in testing plan but details is separated out in different test strategy document.

Ex:Test plan gives the information of who is going to test at what time. For example: Module 1
is going to be tested by “X tester”. If tester Y replaces X for some reason, the test plan has to be
updated.

On the contrary, test strategy is going to have details like – “Individual modules are to be tested by test
team members. “ In this case, it does not matter who is testing it- so it’s generic and the change in the
team member does not have to be updated, keeping it static.

Deliverables: Test Plan with estimation

9.3 Test Case Development: “During this phase the test cases will be prepared”.

9.3.1 What is test case: “A test case is a set of conditions under which a tester will determine whether a
system under test satisfies requirements or works correctly.”

Writing Good Test Cases:

 As far as possible, write test cases in such a way that you test only one thing at a time. Do
 not overlap or complicate test cases. Attempt to make your test cases ‘atomic’.

  Ensure that all positive scenarios and negative scenarios are covered.

  Language:
  Write in simple and easy to understand language.
  Use active voice: Do this, do that.
  Use exact and consistent names (of forms, fields, etc).
  Characteristics of a good test case:
  Accurate: Exacts the purpose.
  Economical: No unnecessary steps or words.
  Traceable: Capable of being traced to requirements.
 Repeatable: Can be used to perform the test over and over.

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 25
Manual Testing

 Reusable: Can be reused if necessary.

9.3.2 Test Case Techniques:

  Equivalence Portioning (EP)

  Boundary Value Analysis (BVP)
 Error Guessing

Equivalence Portioning:“EP divides the input data of a software unit into partitions of equivalent
data from which test cases can be derived.”

Test cases are designed to cover each partition at least once. This technique tries to define test cases
that uncover classes of errors, thereby reducing the total number of test cases that must be developed.
An advantage of this approach is reduction in the time required for testing a software due to lesser
number of test cases.

Boundary Value Analysis: “Tests are designed to include representatives of boundary values “

Error Guessing: “The Error guessing is a technique where the experienced and good testers
are encouraged to think of situations in which the software may not be able to cope.”

The success of error guessing is very much dependent on the skill of the tester, as good testers know
where the defects are most likely to be. This is why an error guessing approach, used after more formal
techniques have been applied to some extent, can be very effective.

9.3.3 Test Data Preparation

What is Test Data: “In order to test a software application you need to enter some data for testing most
of the features. Any such specifically identified data which is used in tests is known as test data.”

Test data preparation: In the above example we can generate the inputs for Valid and Invalid partitions.

Ex:

Valid: 1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 12

Invalid: -2, -1, 0, 13, 15, 99, 150, 999

Page # 26
Manual Testing

9.3.4 Types of test cases

Functional Test Cases: “The test cases based on functional requirement specifications”

Positive Test Cases: “Test Cases with valid input and also verifying that the outputs are correct.”

Negative Test Cases: “This testing involves exercising application functionality using a combination of
invalid inputs, some unexpected operating conditions and by some other “out-of-bounds” scenarios.”

Non Functional Test Cases:“ The test cases based on functional requirement specifications
like performance, Load, Stress, Security, etc.”

9.3.5 Test Case Review: Reviewing is a form of testing too – the verification part of the V&V, also called
static testing.

Why Review: For exactly the same reason we test the software

  To uncover errors

  To check for completeness
 To make sure the standards and guidelines are followed

Review Checklist:

  Do test cases cover all requirements?

  Has each test case been assigned a test case identifier?
  Does each test case specify?
- Actions
- Test condition
- Expected result
  Have the expected results been recorded in detail?

  Is any method for validating expected results specified?

 Do test cases for field validations, record validations and database updates include
 the following?

- Valid conditions
- Invalid conditions
- Boundary or unusual conditions
  Do the test cases for reports include the test data along with the expected output?

  Have the inter test case dependencies been described?

 Have Pass/Fail criteria been specified?

Manual Testing

  Have all requested environments been specified?

  Has the method for logging on to the test environment been specified?
  Are pre-conditions for the test specified?
 Is the number of Test cases met customer standards?

Self-Review: “Review our own work by us”

Peer Review: “Review our own work by colleague”

Lead Review: “Review our work by our Test lead or Manager”

Client Review: “Review our work by client or business team after lead review.”

Deliverables: Test Case Document, Test Data

9.4 Test Environment Setup

“Test environment decides the software and hardware conditions under which a work product is tested.
“

Test environment set-up is one of the critical aspects of testing process and can be done in parallel with
Test Case Development Stage. Test team may not be involved in this activity if the customer or dev team
provides the test environment in which case the test team is required to do a readiness check (smoke
testing) of the given environment.

Deliverables: Test Environment

How many environments do we have: “A Typical project can have following environments”

- Dev
- QA
- Pre-Production
- Production

9.5 Test Execution

“In this phase testing team start executing test cases based on prepared test planning & prepared test
cases in the prior step in testing environment”.

Deliverables: Test cases updated with results

Manual Testing

9.6 Result Analysis & Reporting:

“After test execution phase, if the test case is passed then same can be marked as Passed. If any test
case is failed then corresponding defect can be reported to developer team via bug tracking system &
bug can be linked for corresponding test case for further analysis.”

Severity:It is the extent to which the defect can affect the software. In other words it defines the
impact that a given defect has on the system.

If an application or web page crashes when a remote link is clicked, in this case clicking the remote
link by an user is rare but the impact of application crashing is severe. So the severity is high but
priority is low.

 Critical: The defect that results in the termination of the complete system or one or more

 component of the system and causes extensive corruption of the data. The failed function is
unusable and there is no acceptable alternative method to achieve the required results then the
severity will be stated as critical.

 Major: The defect that results in the termination of the complete system or one or more

 component of the system and causes extensive corruption of the data. The failed function is
unusable but there exists an acceptable alternative method to achieve the required results then
the severity will be stated as major.

 Medium: The defect that does not result in the termination, but causes the
system to produce incorrect, incomplete or inconsistent results then the
severity will be stated as moderate.


 Minor: The defect that does not result in the termination and does not damage the usability of

the system and the desired results can be easily obtained by working around the defects
then the severity is stated as minor.


 Cosmetic: The defect that is related to the enhancement of the system where the changes are
related to the look and field of the application then the severity is stated as cosmetic.

Priority: “Priority defines the order in which we should resolve a defect. Should we fix it now, or can it
wait?”

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 29
Manual Testing

This priority status is set by the tester to the developer mentioning the time frame to fix the defect. If
high priority is mentioned then the developer has to fix it at the earliest. The priority status is set
based on the customer requirements.

For example: If the company name is misspelled in the home page of the website, then the priority is
high and severity is low to fix it.

 Low: The defect is an irritant which should be repaired, but repair can be deferred until
 after more serious defect has been fixed.

 Medium: The defect should be resolved in the normal course of development activities. It
 can wait until a new build or version is created.

 High: The defect must be resolved as soon as possible because the defect is affecting the
application or the product severely. The system cannot be used until the repair has been done.

Few very important scenarios related to the severity and priority which are asked during
the interview:

 High Priority & High Severity: An error which occurs on the basic functionality of the
 application and will not allow the user to use the system. (Eg. A site maintaining the
 student

details, on saving record if it, doesn’t allow to save the record then this is high priority and
high severity bug.)

 High Priority & Low Severity: The spelling mistakes that happens on the cover page or heading
or title of an application.


 High Severity & Low Priority: An error which occurs on the functionality of the application (for

which there is no workaround) and will not allow the user to use the system but on click of
link which is rarely used by the end user.


 Low Priority and Low Severity: Any cosmetic or spelling issues which is within a paragraph or in
the report (Not on cover page, heading, title).

- Defect id
- Date
- Created By
- Assigned TO
- Bug description
- Steps to Reproduce
- Expected Result
- Comments
- Screen shots

Defect Life Cycle:“Defect life cycle is a cycle which a defect goes through during its lifetime. “

It starts when defect is found and ends when a defect is closed, after ensuring it’s not
reproduced. Defect life cycle is related to the bug found during testing.

The Life cycle of the bug can be shown diagrammatically as follows:

 New: When a defect is logged and posted for the first time. It’s state is given as new.
 
 Assigned: After the tester has posted the bug, the lead of the tester approves that the bug
 is genuine and he assigns the bug to corresponding developer and the developer team. It’s
state given as assigned.


 Open: At this state the developer has started analyzing and working on the defect fix.

Manual Testing

 Fixed: When developer makes necessary code changes and verifies the changes then he/she
 can make bug status as ‘Fixed’ and the bug is passed to testing team.

 Pending retest: After fixing the defect the developer has given that particular code for retesting
 to the tester. Here the testing is pending on the testers end. Hence its status is pending retest.

 Retest: At this stage the tester do the retesting of the changed code which developer has given
 to him to check whether the defect got fixed or not.

 Verified: The tester tests the bug again after it got fixed by the developer. If the bug is not
 present in the software, he approves that the bug is fixed and changes the status to “verified”.

 Reopen: If the bug still exists even after the bug is fixed by the developer, the tester changes
 the status to “reopened”. The bug goes through the life cycle once again.

 Closed: Once the bug is fixed, it is tested by the tester. If the tester feels that the bug no longer
 exists in the software, he changes the status of the bug to “closed”. This state means that the
 bug is fixed, tested and approved.

 Duplicate: If the bug is repeated twice or the two bugs mention the same concept of the
 bug, then one bug status is changed to “duplicate“.

 Rejected: If the developer feels that the bug is not genuine, he rejects the bug. Then the state of
 the bug is changed to “rejected”.

 Deferred: The bug, changed to deferred state means the bug is expected to be fixed in next
releases. The reasons for changing the bug to this state have many factors. Some of them are
 priority of the bug may be low, lack of time for the release or the bug may not have major effect
 on the software.

  Not a bug: The state given as “Not a bug” if there is no change in the functionality of the

application. For an example: If customer asks for some change in the look and field of the
application like change of color of some text then it is not a bug but just some change in the
looks of the application.

Typical Exit criteria may include the following:

  All Test plans have been run.

  A certain level of requirements coverage has been achieved.
  No high priority or severe bugs are left outstanding.
 All high-risk areas have been fully tested, with only minor residual risks left outstanding.

 Cost–when the budget has been spent.

 The schedule has been achieved.

Maintenance: Once a system is deployed it is in service for years and decades. During this time the
system and its operational environment is often corrected, changed or extended. Testing that is
provided during this phase is called maintenance testing.

Usually maintenance testing is consisting of two parts:

First one is, testing the changes that has been made because of the correction in the system or if the
system is extended or because of some additional features added to it.

Second one is regression tests to prove that the rest of the system has not been affected by the
maintenance work.

Metrics:

A Metric is a quantitative measure of the degree to which a system, system component, or process
possesses a given attribute.

Metrics can be defined as “STANDARDS OF MEASUREMENT”.

Software Metrics are used to measure the quality of the project. Simply, Metric is a unit used
for describing an attribute. Metric is a scale for measurement.

Suppose, in general, “Kilogram” is a metric for measuring the attribute “Weight”. Similarly, in software,
“How many issues are found in thousand lines of code?”, here No. of issues is one measurement & No. of
lines of code is another measurement. Metric is defined from these two measurements.

Test metrics example:

  How many defects are existed within the module?
  How many test cases are executed per person?
 What is the Test coverage %?

Why Test Metrics?

Generation of Software Test Metrics is the most important responsibility of the Software Test
Lead/Manager.

“We cannot improve what we cannot measure.”

“We cannot control what we cannot measure”

 Take decision on process or technology change

Effectiveness: Doing the right thing. It deals with meeting the desirable attributes that
are expected by the customer.
Efficiency: Doing the thing right. It concerns the resources used for the service to be rendered

a. Test Plan coverage on Functionality:

Formula: (No of requirements covered / total number of requirements) * 100

b. Test Case defect density:

Formula: (Defective Test Scripts /Total Test Scripts) * 100

Example: Total test script developed 1360, total test script executed 1280, total test
script passed 1065, total test script failed 215.

So, test case defect density is :215 X 100 / 1280 = 16.8%

This 16.8% value can also be called as test case efficiency %, which is depends upon total
number of test cases which uncovered defects.

c. Defect Slippage Ratio: Number of defects slipped (reported from production) v/s
number of defects reported during execution.

Formula: Number of Defects Slipped / (Number of Defects Raised - Number of Defects Withdrawn)

Example: Customer filed defects are 21, total defect found while testing are 267, total
number of invalid defects are 17.

So, Slippage Ratio is [21/ (267-17)] X 100 = 8.4%

d. Requirement Volatility: Number of requirements agreed v/s number of requirements changed.

Formula: Number of Requirements Added + Deleted + Modified) *100 / Number of Original Requirements

Example: VSS 1.3 release had total 67 requirements initially, later they added another 7
new requirements and removed 3 from initial requirements and modified 11 requirements.

So, requirement Volatility is (7 + 3 + 11) * 100/67 = 31.34%

Means almost 1/3 of the requirement changed after initial identification

e. Review Efficiency: The Review Efficiency is a metric that offers insight on the review quality and
testing some organization also use this term as “Static Testing” efficiency and they are aiming to
get min of 30% defects in static testing.

Formula=100*Total number of defects found by reviews/Total number of project defects

Example: A project found total 269 defects in different reviews, which were fixed and test team
got 476 defects which were reported and valid

So, Review efficiency is [269/(269+476)] X 100 = 36.1%

f. Defect Removal Effectiveness(DRE):

DRE= (Defects removed during development phase x100%) / Defects latent in the product
Defects latent in the product = Defects removed during development Phase+ defects found later by user

Testing Terminology
1. Project: Requirements will come from one customer and mostly it will be used by customer and
his people.

2. Product: Requirements will come from various customers and will be used by more number of
customers.

3. Application: Group of programs designed for the customers to use for specific operations.

4. AUT (Application under Testing): After Designing and coding phase of development cycle,the
application(build) comes for testing then the application(build) is called "Application Under test".

5. Quality: Justification of the Requirements and absence of Defects, delivered on time.

6. Defect: Deviation from the requirement

7. SRS: System Requirement Specification, which is the actual requirement document.

8. BDD: Business Design Document, which is an initial document designed by business people and then
they will prepare the SRS.

9. Mock ups: In Design phase or for requirement phase, some sample screens replica of actual
application will be provided for team.

10. Use Case: It will describe the Basic Flow, Alternate Flow and Exceptional Flow, how the application
will be processed. Use case document will be used as the base document by both the Developers
and the Testers. Developers will write the code based on the Use case and Testers in turn will
identify test scenarios and write test cases based on the use case. Use will be written by the
Business Analysts from the Functionality requirement document.

11. Test Case: Test cases are the step wise description or activities which are going to be executed in
order to validate the application. The test cases will contain the step number, description or activity -
what action is going to happen while validation, the input data, the expected result and the actual

result. The test cases are written based on the functionality or requirements or the use cases
received from the client. Test Cases will be prepared by Testing Team.

12. Test data: Test data is the data that is used in tests of a software system.
In order to test a software application you need to enter some data for testing most of the features.
Any such specifically identified data which is used in tests is known as test data.
You can have test data in excel sheet which can be entered manually while executing test cases or
it can be read automatically from files (XML, Flat Files, Database etc.) by automation tools.

13. Version Control: It is a system that records changes to a file or set of files over time so that you
can recall specific versions later.

14. Check out: Taking the document to edit (do the changes, ex: Updating the defect tracker,
test cases, etc) from the configuration management tool or common repository (VSS).

15. Check in: Releasing the document after performing the changes to the configuration management
tool or common repository (VSS).

16. Release notes: Release notes is a document which will be prepared by the dev team during the
release time. It will be delivered to the customers which contains the technical information about
changes addressed in the current release.

17. Build: Build is a version of software will be given for testing team to test. Usually release
contains multiple builds to test. Software is still in testing.

18. Release: Software is no longer in testing phase, ready to deliver to customer.

19. Delivery: Handover the working software constructed based on the customer requirements to the
customer on or before delivery date.

20. Test Deliverables: The documents which were prepared during the testing phase.

- Clarification Document / Query Tracker

- Traceability Matrix
- Test Case Document with results
- Defect Report (Open, Closed, Defer)
- Test Summary Report (Passed, Failed, Hold)

main purpose of Requirement Traceability Matrix is to see that all test cases are covered so that no
functionality should miss while testing.

23. Productivity: Effective hours produced by individual team members in the team. Ex, if a person stays
at office more than 10 hrs and he works only for 7 hrs and 3 hrs he didn’t work on the project, Then
the productivity is 7 hrs.

date is 20th Jan 15 and actual completion date is 25th Jan 15 then the variance is 5 days.

25. Estimation: Providing the time to finish the specific work.

26. Escalation: Taking the issue to next step. If there is a defect and defect is not accepting by the
dev team but still you believe that it’s an issue, you can contact customer for the issue.

27. Roles & Responsibilities: The work which we are going to perform after getting the Job. The
Responsibilities will change based on role. Ex, Test engineer will do requirement understanding,
test case preparation, execution and reporting the bugs. Test Lead will assign the work to his
team members, collects data, etc.

28. Entry Criteria: Entry criterion is used to determine when a given test activity should start.
It also includes the beginning of a level of testing, when test design or when test execution
is ready to start.

NOT. Exit criteria can be defined for all of the test activities right from planning, specification and
execution.

30. Status Call: Status call will happen daily / weekly / monthly based on client/company rules
where we will discuss about project status.

31. MOM: Minutes of Meeting are the written or recorded documentation that is used to inform
attendees and non-attendees of the happenings during the meeting.

MOM Contains:

follow-up actions committed to by participants, due dates for the completion of commitments , and any
other events or discussions worth documenting for future review or history.

32. One to One: It is a face to face meeting.

33. Appraisal: The comp people (HR, Managers, and team) will assess the individual team
member based on Peer/Lead/Manager feedback and they will revise your salary or role. There
will be Midterm and annual appraisals based on company rules.

34. Rating: Giving ranking for the individual team member by the Lead/managers based on their
skills and their performance during appraisal period.

35. Time sheet: If a team member is billable (charging client) the he will have to submit his time sheet
weekly/daily contains his tasks completed during the week. Usually total hours per week are 40 hrs
which is 8 hrs per day.

Ex: Task Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday

Test Case Preparation 2 hrs 4 hrs 5 hrs 7 hrs 8 hrs

INTERVIEW FAQ’S

Q. What is the MAIN benefit of designing tests early in the life cycle?

Ans: It helps prevent defects from being introduced into the code.

Q. What is risk-based testing?

Ans: Risk-based testing is the term used for an approach to creating a test strategy that is based
on prioritizing tests by risk. The basis of the approach is a detailed risk analysis and prioritizing of
risks by risk level. Tests to address each risk are then specified, starting with the highest risk first.

Q. A wholesaler sells printer cartridges. The minimum order quantity is 5. There is a 20% discount
for orders of 100 or more printer cartridges. You have been asked to prepare test cases using various
values for the number of printer cartridges ordered. Which of the following groups contain three
test inputs that would be generated using Boundary Value Analysis?

Ans: 4, 5, 99

Q. What is the KEY difference between preventative and reactive approaches to testing?

Ans: Preventative tests are designed early; reactive tests are designed after the
software has been produced.

Q. What is the purpose of exit criteria?

Ans: The purpose of exit criteria is to define when a test level is completed.

Q. What determines the level of risk?

Ans: The likelihood of an adverse event and the impact of the event determine the level of risk.

Q. What is the MAIN objective when reviewing a software deliverable?

Ans: To identify defects in any software work product.

specification.

Ans: Test case specification defines the expected results of a test.

Q: What is the benefit of test independence?

Ans: It avoids author bias in defining effective tests.

Q. As part of which test process do you determine the exit criteria?

Ans: The exit Criteria is determined on the bases of ‘Test Planning’.

Q. What is beta testing?

Ans: Testing performed by potential customers at their own locations.

Q. What is the difference between Testing Techniques and Testing Tools?

Ans: Testing technique: – Is a process for ensuring that some aspects of the application system or unit
functions properly there may be few techniques but many tools.

Testing Tools: Is a vehicle for performing a test process. The tool is a resource to the tester, but it is
insufficient to conduct testing

input for writing …

Ans: User Acceptance Test Cases

Q. Repeated testing of an already tested program, after modification, to discover any defects
introduced or uncovered as a result of the changes in the software being tested or in another
related or unrelated software component:

Ans: Regression Testing

Q. What is component testing?

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 43
Manual Testing

Ans: Component testing, also known as unit, module and program testing, searches for defects in, and
verifies the functioning of software (e.g. modules, programs, objects, classes, etc.) that are separately
testable. Component testing may be done in isolation from the rest of the system depending on the
context of the development life cycle and the system. Most often stubs and drivers are used to replace
the missing software and simulate the interface between the software components in a simple manner.
A stub is called from the software component to be tested; a driver calls a component to be tested.

Q. What is functional system testing?

Ans: Testing the end to end functionality of the system as a whole is defined as a
functional system testing.

Q. What are the benefits of Independent Testing?

Ans: Independent testers are unbiased and identify different defects at the same time.

Q. What are the different Methodologies in Agile Development Model?

Ans: There are currently seven different agile methodologies that I am aware of:

1. Extreme Programming (XP)

2. Scrum
3. Lean Software Development
4. Feature-Driven Development
5. Agile Unified Process
6. Crystal
7. Dynamic Systems Development Model (DSDM)

Q: Which activity in the fundamental test process includes evaluation of the testability of
the requirements and system?

Ans: A ‘Test Analysis’ and ‘Design’ includes evaluation of the testability of the requirements and system.

Q: What is typically the MOST important reason to use risk to drive testing
efforts? Ans: Because testing everything is not feasible.

Manual Testing

Q. What is random/monkey testing? When it is used?

Ans: Random testing often known as monkey testing. In such type of testing data is generated
randomly often using a tool or automated mechanism. With this randomly generated input the system
is tested and results are analysed accordingly. These testing are less reliable; hence it is normally used
by the beginners and to see whether the system will hold up under adverse effects.

Q. Which of the following are valid objectives for incident reports?

Ans:

1. Provide developers and other parties with feedback about the problem to enable
identification, isolation and correction as necessary.
2. Provide ideas for test process improvement.
3. Provide a vehicle for assessing tester competence.
4. Provide testers with a means of tracking the quality of the system under test.

Q: Consider the following techniques. Which are static and which are dynamic techniques?

Ans:

1. Equivalence Partitioning.
2. Use Case Testing.
3. Data Flow Analysis.
4. Exploratory Testing.
5. Decision Testing.
6. Inspections.

Data Flow Analysis and Inspections are static; Equivalence Partitioning, Use Case
Testing, Exploratory Testing and Decision Testing are dynamic.

Q: Why are static testing and dynamic testing described as complementary?

Ans: Because they share the aim of identifying defects but differ in the types of defect they find.

Q: What are the phases of a formal review?

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 45
Manual Testing

Ans: In contrast to informal reviews, formal reviews follow a formal process. A typical formal
review process consists of six main steps:

1. Planning
2. Kick-off
3. Preparation
4. Review meeting
5. Rework
6. Follow-up.

Q: What is the role of moderator in review process?

Ans: The moderator (or review leader) leads the review process. He or she determines, in co-operation
with the author, the type of review, approach and the composition of the review team. The moderator
performs the entry check and the follow-up on the rework, in order to control the quality of the input
and output of the review process. The moderator also schedules the meeting, disseminates documents
before the meeting, coaches other team members, paces the meeting, leads possible discussions and
stores the data that is collected.

Q: What is an equivalence partition (also known as an equivalence class)?

Ans: An input or output ranges of values such that only one value in the range becomes a test case.

Q: When should configuration management procedures be implemented?

Ans: During test planning.

Q: A Type of functional Testing, which investigates the functions relating to detection of threats, such
as virus from malicious outsiders?

Ans: Security Testing

Q: Testing wherein we subject the target of the test , to varying workloads to measure and
evaluate the performance behaviours and ability of the target and of the test to continue
to function properly under these different workloads?

Manual Testing

Ans: Load Testing

Q: Testing activity which is performed to expose defects in the interfaces and in the interaction
between integrated components is?

Ans: Integration Level Testing

Q: What are the Structure-based (white-box) testing techniques?

Ans: Structure-based testing techniques (which are also dynamic rather than static) use the internal
structure of the software to derive test cases. They are commonly called 'white-box' or 'glass-box'
techniques (implying you can see into the system) since they require knowledge of how the software is
implemented, that is, how it works. For example, a structural technique may be concerned with
exercising loops in the software. Different test cases may be derived to exercise the loop once, twice,
and many times. This may be done regardless of the functionality of the software.

Q: When “Regression Testing” should be performed?

Ans: After the software has changed or when the environment has changed Regression testing
should be performed.

Q: What is negative and positive testing?

Ans: A negative test is when you put in an invalid input and receives errors. While a positive testing, is
when you put in a valid input and expect some action to be completed in accordance with the
specification.

Q: What is the purpose of a test completion criterion?

Ans: The purpose of test completion criterion is to determine when to stop testing

Q: What can static analysis NOT find?

Ans: For example memory leaks.

Q: What is the difference between re-testing and regression testing?

Website:www.testingmasters.com
Email:[email protected]
Page # 47
Manual Testing

Ans: Re-testing ensures the original fault has been removed; regression testing looks for unexpected
side effects.

Q: What are the Experience-based testing techniques?

Ans: In experience-based techniques, people's knowledge, skills and background are a prime contributor
to the test conditions and test cases. The experience of both technical and business people is important,
as they bring different perspectives to the test analysis and design process. Due to previous experience
with similar systems, they may have insights into what could go wrong, which is very useful for testing.

Q: What type of review requires formal entry and exit criteria, including
metrics? Ans: Inspection

Q: Could reviews or inspections be considered part of testing?

Ans: Yes, because both help detect faults and improve quality.

Q: An input field takes the year of birth between 1900 and 2004 what are the boundary
values for testing this field?

Ans: 1899, 1900, 1950, 1951, 2004, 2005

Q: What is the one Key reason why developers have difficulty testing their
own work? Ans: Lack of Objectivity

Q: When should testing be stopped?

Ans: It depends on the risks for the system being tested. There are some criteria bases on which you
can stop testing.

1. Deadlines (Testing, Release)

2. Test budget has been depleted
3. Bug rate fall below certain level
4. Test cases completed with certain percentage passed
5. Alpha or beta periods for testing ends

Q: Which of the following is the main purpose of the integration strategy for integration testing
in the small?

Ans: The main purpose of the integration strategy is to specify which modules to combine when and
how many at once.

Q: What is black box testing? What are the different black box testing techniques?

Ans: Black box testing is the software testing method which is used to test the software
without knowing the internal structure of code or program. This testing is usually done to
check the functionality of an application. The different black box testing techniques are

1. Equivalence Partitioning
2. Boundary value analysis

Q: Which review is normally used to evaluate a product to determine its suitability for intended use
and to identify discrepancies?

Ans: Technical Review.

Q: Faults found should be originally documented by whom?

Q: A number of critical bugs are fixed in software. All the bugs are in one module, related to reports.
The test manager decides to do regression testing only on the reports module.

Ans: Regression testing should be done on other modules as well because fixing one module
may affect other modules.

Q: Why does the boundary value analysis provide good test cases?

Ans: Because errors are frequently made during programming of the different cases near the ‘edges’ of
the range of values.

Q: What makes an inspection different from other review types?

Ans: It is led by a trained leader, uses formal entry and exit criteria and checklists.

Q: Why can be tester dependent on configuration management?

Ans: Because configuration management assures that we know the exact version of the testware and
the test object.

Q: What is a V-Model?

Ans: A software development model that illustrates how testing activities integrate with
software development phases

Q: What is maintenance testing?

Ans: Triggered by modifications, migration or retirement of existing software

Q: What is test coverage?

Ans: Test coverage measures in some specific way the amount of testing performed by a set of tests
(derived in some other way, e.g. using specification-based techniques). Wherever we can count things

Q: When do we prepare RTM (Requirement traceability matrix), is it before test case

designing or after test case designing?

Ans: It would be before test case designing. Requirements should already be traceable from Review
activities since you should have traceability in the Test Plan already. This question also would depend on
the organisation. If the organisations do test after development started then requirements must be
already traceable to their source. To make life simpler use a tool to manage requirements.

Q: What is called the process starting with the terminal modules?

Ans: Bottom-up integration

Q: During which test activity could faults be found most cost effectively?
Ans: During test planning

Q. The purpose of requirement phase is

Ans: To freeze requirements, to understand user needs, to define the scope of testing

Q. Why we split testing into distinct stages?

Ans: We split testing into distinct stages because of following reasons,

1. Each test stage has a different purpose

2. It is easier to manage testing in stages
3. We can run different test into different environments
4. Performance and quality of the testing is improved using phased testing

Q. What is DRE?

Ans: To measure test effectiveness a powerful metric is used to measure test effectiveness known as
DRE (Defect Removal Efficiency) From this metric we would know how many bugs we have found
from the set of test cases. Formula for calculating DRE is

DRE=Number of bugs while testing / number of bugs while testing + number of bugs found by user

Q. What is Alpha testing?

Ans: Pre-release testing by end user representatives at the developer’s site.

Q. What is a failure?

Ans: Failure is a departure from specified behaviour.

Q. What are Test comparators?

Ans: Is it really a test if you put some inputs into some software, but never look to see whether the
software produces the correct result? The essence of testing is to check whether the software
produces the correct result, and to do that, we must compare what the software produces to what
it should produce. A test comparator helps to automate aspects of that comparison.

Q. Who is responsible for document all the issues, problems and open point that were identified
during the review meeting

Ans: The fault has been built into more documentation, code, tests, etc

Q. What is Coverage measurement?

Ans: It is a partial measure of test thoroughness.

Q. What is Boundary value testing?

Ans: Test boundary conditions on, below and above the edges of input and output equivalence classes.
For instance, let say a bank application where you can withdraw maximum Rs.20,000 and a minimum of
Rs.100, so in boundary value testing we test only the exact boundaries, rather than hitting in the
middle. That means we test above the maximum limit and below the minimum limit.

Q.The purpose of which is allow specific tests to be carried out on a system or network that resembles
as closely as possible the environment where the item under test will be used upon release?

Ans: Test Environment

Q. What can be thought of as being based on the project plan, but with greater amounts of detail?

Ans: Phase Test Plan

Q. What is exploratory testing?

Ans: Exploratory testing is a hands-on approach in which testers are involved in minimum planning and
maximum test execution. The planning involves the creation of a test charter, a short declaration of
the scope of a short (1 to 2 hour) time-boxed test effort, the objectives and possible approaches to be
used. The test design and test execution activities are performed in parallel typically without formally
documenting the test conditions, test cases or test scripts. This does not mean that other, more formal
testing techniques will not be used. For example, the tester may decide to use boundary value analysis
but will think through and test the most important boundary values without necessarily writing them
down. Some notes will be written during the exploratory-testing session, so that a report can be
produced afterwards.

Q. What is traceability matrix?

Ans: The relationship between test cases and requirements is shown with the help of a document. This
document is known as traceability matrix.

Q. What is Equivalence partitioning testing?

Ans: Equivalence partitioning testing is a software testing technique which divides the application input
test data into each partition at least once of equivalent data from which test cases can be derived. By
this testing method it reduces the time required for software testing.

Q. What is white box testing and list the types of white box testing?
