Testing of Client/Server Architectures
Client/server architectures represent a significant challenge for software testers. The distributed nature of client/server environments, the performance issues associated with transaction processing, the potential presence of a number of different hardware platforms, the complexities of network communication, the need to service multiple clients from a centralized (or in some cases, distributed) database, and the coordination requirements imposed on the server all combine to make testing of C/S architectures and the software that reside within them considerably more difficult than testing standalone applications. In fact, recent industry studies indicate a significant increase in testing time and cost when C/S environments are developed.
