Software testing can provide objective, independent information about the quality of software and the risk of its failure to a user or sponsor. [1] Software testing can determine the correctness of software for specific scenarios but cannot determine correctness for all scenarios. [2] [3] It cannot find all bugs.
ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119 Software and systems engineering -- Software testing [1] is a series of five international standards for software testing.First developed in 2007 [2] and released in 2013, the standard "defines vocabulary, processes, documentation, techniques, and a process assessment model for testing that can be used within any software development lifecycle."
Dynamic testing involves running the software. Static testing includes verifying requirements, syntax of code and any other activities that do not include actually running the code of the program. Testing can be further divided into functional and non-functional testing. In functional testing the tester would check the calculations, any link on ...
Test definition includes: test plan, association with product requirements and specifications. Eventually, some relationship can be set between tests so that precedences can be established. E.g. if test A is parent of test B and if test A is failing, then it may be useless to perform test B. Tests should also be associated with priorities.
Test design is one of the most important prerequisites of software quality. Good test design supports: defining and improving quality related processes and procedures (quality assurance); evaluating the quality of the product with regards to customer expectations and needs (quality control); finding defects in the product (software testing).
The authors then present a methodology to define the learning objects granularity in the computing area as well as a case study in software testing. Later, the authors carry out five experiments to evaluate the learning potential from the produced learning objects, as well as to demonstrate the possibility of learning object reuse.
Modularity-driven testing is a term used in the testing of software. The test script modularity framework requires the creation of small, independent scripts that represent modules, sections, and functions of the application-under-test. These small scripts are then used in a hierarchical fashion to construct larger tests, realizing a particular ...
This article discusses a set of tactics useful in software testing.It is intended as a comprehensive list of tactical approaches to software quality assurance (more widely colloquially known as quality assurance (traditionally called by the acronym "QA")) and general application of the test method (usually just called "testing" or sometimes "developer testing").
