Testing is a process used to help identify the correctness, completeness and quality of developed http://onestoptesting.com/Introduction/# - There are many approaches to software testing, but
effective testing of complex products is essentially a process of
investigation, not merely a matter of creating and following rote
procedure. One definition of testing is "the process of questioning a
product in order to evaluate it", where the "questions" are things the
tester tries to do with the product, and the product answers with its
behavior in reaction to the probing of the tester. Although most of the
intellectual processes of testing are nearly identical to that of
review or inspection, the word testing is connoted to mean the dynamic
analysis of the product—putting the product through its paces.
The quality of the application can and normally does
vary widely from system to system but some of the common quality
attributes include reliability, stability, portability, maintainability
and usability. Refer to the ISO standard ISO 9126 for a more complete
list of attributes and criteria.
Testing helps is Verifying and Validating if the
Software is working as it is intended to be working. Thins involves
using Static and Dynamic methodologies to Test the application.
