Definition

Software testing is the process of evaluating


and verifying that a software product or
application does what it is supposed to do.

3
Introduction

• Software testing identifies bugs and issues in the


development process so they're fixed prior to
product launch.
• This approach ensures that only quality products are
distributed to consumers, which in turn elevates
customer satisfaction and trust.
• The benefits of testing include preventing bugs,
reducing development costs and improving
performance.

Types of Software Testing
Manual testing
• The process of checking the functionality of an
application as per the customer needs without
taking any help of automation tools is known as
manual testing.
• While performing the manual testing on any
application, we do not need any specific
knowledge of any testing tool, rather than have a
proper understanding of the product so we can
easily prepare the test document.
●●●
6
Types of Software Testing
Automation testing
• Automation testing is a process of converting
any manual test cases into the test scripts with
the help of automation tools, or any
programming language is known as
automation testing.
• With the help of automation testing, we can
enhance the speed of our test execution
because here, we do not require any human
efforts.

Types of Software Testing
Acceptance testing:
• Verifying whether the whole system works as
intended.
Integration testing:
• Ensuring that software components or
functions operate together.
Unit testing:
• Validating that each software unit performs as
expected. A unit is the smallest testable
component of an application.
●●●
8
Types of Software Testing
Functional testing:
• Checking functions by emulating business
scenarios, based on functional requirements.
Black-box testing is a common way to verify
functions.
Stress testing:
• Testing how much strain the system can take
before it fails. Considered to be a type of non-
functional testing.

●●●
9
Types of Software Testing
Performance testing:
• Testing how the software performs under
different workloads. Load testing, for example,
is used to evaluate performance under real-life
load conditions.
Usability testing:
• Validating how well a customer can use a
system or web application to complete a task.

●●●
10
Types of Software Testing
Regression testing:
• Checking whether new features break or
degrade functionality. Sanity testing can
be used to verify menus, functions and
commands at the surface level, when
there is no time for a full regression test.

11
History of Software Testing
• Software testing arrived alongside the
development of software, which had its
beginnings just after the second world war.
• Computer scientist Tom Kilburn is credited
with writing the first piece of software, which
debuted on June 21, 1948, at the University
of Manchester in England.
• It performed mathematical calculations using
machine code instructions.
●●●
12
History of Software Testing
• Debugging was the main testing method at the
time and remained so for the next two decades.
• By the 1980s, development teams looked
beyond isolating and fixing software bugs to
testing applications in real-world settings.
• It set the stage for a broader view of testing,
which encompassed a quality assurance process
that was part of the software development life
cycle.
●●●
13
History of Software Testing
• “In the 1990s, there was a transition from
testing to a more comprehensive process called
quality assurance, which covers the entire
software development cycle and affects the
processes of planning, design, creation and
execution of test cases, support for existing test
cases and test environments,” says Alexander
Yaroshko in his post on the uTest developer site.

●●●
14
History of Software Testing
• “Testing had reached a qualitatively new level,
which led to the further development of
methodologies, the emergence of powerful
tools for managing the testing process and test
automation tools.”

Benefits of Software Testing
Cost-Effective:
• It is one of the important advantages of
software testing. Testing any IT project on
time helps you to save your money for the
long term. In case if the bugs caught in the
earlier stage of software testing, it costs
less to fix.

●●●
16
Benefits of Software Testing
Security:
• It is the most vulnerable and sensitive benefit
of software testing. People are looking for
trusted products. It helps in removing risks
and problems earlier.
Product quality:
• It is an essential requirement of any software
product. Testing ensures a quality product is
delivered to customers.
●●●
17
Benefits of Software Testing
Customer Satisfaction:
• The main aim of any product is to give
satisfaction to their customers. UI/UX
Testing ensures the best user experience.

Conclusion
 Software testing can be stated as the process of
verifying and validating whether a software or
application is bug-free, meets the technical
requirements as guided by its design and
development, and meets the user requirements
effectively and efficiently by handling all the
exceptional and boundary cases.
