Introduction to testing
Testing is mainly done to check whether the software product is working as expected based on the requirements. The tester will verify the product, module, or code of the software product by running some test cases manually or automatically. This helps to identify bugs at the early stages of the product life cycle.
Before starting the actual testing, the tester will write the test cases and test suites. A test case is a sequence of steps that the tester wants to test and verify against the functionality to ensure the system is working properly. A test suite is a collection of test cases.
There are many types of testing available to test the software. Some of them are as follows:
- Unit testing: This helps to validate the smallest portion of the software product, for example, testing a specific program in an entire software product.
- Functional testing: This verifies the functionality of the product and whether it is working as expected or not...
