QA Testing Methodologies
QA Testing Methodologies
Software testing methodologies are the various approaches that can be used to test an application to ensure that it behaves as expected. This includes everything from unit testing to complete end-to-end testing.
The idea of using various testing methodologies in the development process is to ensure that the software can successfully work in multiple environments and different platforms. Broadly, this can be broken down into functional and non-functional testing. In functional testing, the application is tested against business requirements and incorporates various test types that are configured in a way that software behaves as expected to utilize the test cases provided by the design team. The testing methods include the following:
- Unit testing
- Integration testing
- System testing
- Acceptance testing
Non-functional testing includes test that is focussed on operational aspects of the software application. This include:
- Performance testing
- Security testing
- Usability testing
- Compatibility testing
They the key here is to have a robust testing framework that can ensure high-quality software.
Unit Testing: It is often performed by the developers themselves, where the developers test the given set of codes in isolation.
Integration Testing: Integration testing involves integrating different units and thoroughly testing them.
System Testing: This black box testing method is used to evaluate the integrated system to ensure whether it meets a specific requirement.
Acceptance Testing: It is the last phase where we access if the software product is ready for delivery.
Performance Testing: It is used to check how an application can behave under various conditions, including stability and responsiveness.
Security Testing: There are six basic principles of security that are verified including integrity, confidentiality, authentication, authorization, availability, non-repudiation.
Usability Testing: Usability testing tests an application ease of use from an end-user perspective and performed during system testing stages.
Compatibility Testing: It tells how an application will work in various environments.
