Software Testing
• What is Testing? Many people understand many definitions of testing :
1. Testing is the process of demonstrating that errors are not present.
2. The purpose of testing is to show that a program performs its intended
functions correctly.
3. Testing is the process of establishing confidence that a program does
what it is supposed to do.
These definitions are incorrect.
Software Testing
A more appropriate definition is:
“Testing is the process of executing a program with
the intent of finding errors.” •Destructive process •Successful testing-will cause the program to fail •Unsuccessful testing- will not cause the program to fail
