TEsting:-

Chk the application whthr it is fullfilling the All the required Functionality,features etc... or not.

There are three types of testing which we uses to test the application:-

1.Black Box(Close Box,dynamic):- in this tester executes the application for observing the functionality.in this it is not necessary to have coding knowledge.

2.White Box(Oen box,static,glass box):-in this tester do nt execute the application ,he/she chks the path coverege,branch coverage,no. of independant path etc. Inspection,formal reviews,peer to peer reviews comes under this type of testing.Main point is that tester should have coding knowledge.

We performs differnt types of testing so that dont miss any error,bug,missing functionalty etc.

(If im wrong anywhr thn plz correct me n let me know also......)

hai purvashi,

according to my knowledge........

BLACK BOX TESTING will do by TESTERS.so it is not necessary to have

coding knowlege for testers

WHITE BOX TESTING will do by DEVELOPERS.so developers need

coding knowledge.

and more over these r the testing techniques only for s/w testing and unit ,integration testing.

Hi sindhu,

1.Testing is the process of executing the app with the expexted result against actual result to confirm the correctness of the app.

2.Testing becames absolutely essential which makes shure that the app works perfectley and what exactly it need to perform as per the req

Testing types;

1.white box testing;

developers do this type of testing because coding knowledge is absolutly essential. it will be done only for basic field level check only.

2.black box testing;

seperate team will do this type of testing and checks for the fonctionality of the app, they are called testers.

3gray box testing;

this is the combination of both white box and black box testing

Hi,

we need to write test cases to understand the functionality of the application for client requirements.Every company is following different formats as per my knowledge i am telling we will prepare test case documents in excel format.The columns are,

Test case ID,

Requirement ID,

Test case description,

Input data,

Expected result,

Database Table/column effected,

status(Pass/Fail).
