What is Functional Testing?
The functional or requirement specifications help define what QA engineers
consider acceptable while running functional tests. These specifications
are a document that tells the QA engineers what actions they must take to
determine the conformance of the software system

QA engineers can carry out functional testing in


two ways:

Requirements-based - This method contains instructions on


validating the software system's functional aspects

Business scenarios-based - This method contains instructions


on validating the software system based on business scenarios.

functionalities. The areas this testing concentrates on are:

Runs accessibility checks on the system to see if it meets accessibility


Accessibility requirements.

This test validates that your system works well and provides the
Error Conditions appropriate error messages to debug.

The system has no value if its main functions do not work well. This testing
Mainline functions runs to ensure this does not happen.

Process Workflow for Functional Testing
Functional testing generally follows the steps mentioned below:

➢ Create input data according to specific requirements for the functionalities


that need testing.

➢ Based on the outlined requirements, determine which output parameters are


acceptable and which ones are not

➢ Execute test cases

➢ Compare the expected output with the actual result you receive from the test.
