The existing tests can be changed during the following three kinds of computer programming activities: Creation of new tests. Execution of tests. Modification of the code. Since each test contains input data, output data and the path, these components may undergo a change in any combination. When changing the input […] Read More
In making changes to the programs it is necessary to ensure that its quality will not suffer due to such amendments. Therefore, to preserve the quality of the software there is a tendency to conduct regression testing – a high-priced but necessary activity carried out during the maintenance phase and […] Read More
Test automation The use of various approaches to software testing is defined by their effectiveness towards the conditions defined by an industry project. But in reality, the work of testing team members is planned so that test development process can start with the harmonization of requirements for the software product […] Read More
It is worth knowing that classes are tested using special drivers. Drivers are regarded as dummy modules that emulate behavior of software components that a module under test is dependent on. Therefore, they are mostly used in module testing. There are several ways to implement the test driver: The test […] Read More
The full outsourcing of testing This approach suggests that the contracting authority entrusts the whole complex of testing works to the testing agency. It involves a sufficiently close integration of the production process in the customer and testing agency (the scheme of interaction between the companies is shown in figure […] Read More
Main features of testing outsourcing. Why do the managers of IT departments use the services of testing outsourcing? There are several good reasons for that. Generally – and these are the realities of our life – the projects on software creation or introduction are scheduled so that they must be […] Read More
Testing as integral part of software production. The creation of high-quality software product may require the use of well-balanced efforts of several project teams or even companies. It is often possible to achieve the best results through the outsourcing of testing. To efficiently use this approach, you must know how […] Read More
A/B and MVT testing- pros and cons. Split testing is an excellent tool that allows increasing the site conversion and its profit. The primary task in the organization of such experiments is the identification of significant factors (for example, subtitle, pictures, etc.), and their assessment of their impact on the […] Read More
Outsourcing in testing: QA companies against freelancers It is no secret that the recent trend in QA (Quality Assurance) is outsource testing. And the fact that many testers turn into freelancers only reinforces this trend. We’ll try to figure out the advantages of outsourcing testing in specialized companies, offering such […] Read More
Testing strategies And now we are moving from the practice of testing to exploring the new testing technologies (which, which, however, are vulnerable to the risks of thought processes). You came up with the idea that seems to promise improvement and is confirmed by your intuition. Testing is a complex […] Read More
The principles of program testing Despite that we’re all aware of theoretical restrictions of the software, in fact we waste a lot of efforts and costs to perform this task. Although it is considered unreasonable and extremely dangerous to refuse from testing. The other techniques of verification, such as static […] Read More
Types of testing There is lot of ways to group the tests into types. It is important to know and understand each of them. It may seem strange– why do you need to know so much theory just to see if the program works. But remember that you don’t only […] Read More
Main principles and types of testing. Today, there are no testing methods able to fully cover the product, although people invented many approaches to check the quality of different types of products. Therefore, it can be said that even though testing require significant technical knowledge, it is mostly creative activity. […] Read More
The concept and main characteristics of testing. So, what can we call “software testing”? It is the process aimed at the identification of differences between the program behavior and the expectations of the interested persons. The quality of the product can be considered as the correspondence of product’s parameters to […] Read More
Regression testing as a service helps to make sure that the system is bugless after performed modifications. Regression testing is aimed at the software’s major functions. Testing. Debugging Testing process is carried out by a tester in order to identify defects. Debugging is done by a developer who determines why […] Read More
