Testing Articles

According to the 1992 Software Maintenance Technology Reference Guide, “Software implementation is a cozy bonfire, warm, bright, a bustle of comforting concrete activity. But beyond the flames is an immense zone of darkness. Testing is the exploration of this darkness.” Software Testing is used to locate defects in code and provide healthy feedback within the developer community. The uncovered material found in Software Testing contributes to the analysis and manageability of the system and ultimately, creates further stability within the code. Software testing is a mandatory part of software development employed to discover the capabilities of a test plan or specifications for a newly developed software product.

An IT professional needs to be familiar with all phases of the Software Development Life Cycle or SDLC, including Feasibility Study, Requirement Analysis, Design, Construction or Coding, Testing, Implementation, Maintenance and Support. Software Testing is the area of SDLC where the manufacturer earns a necessary confidence in the quality of the produced software product. Through functional, stress, performance and further testing processes, the Testing phase of SDLC is the area of development that substantiates whether or not the software product is fully functional. Testing is an important part of System development and System Testers are required to have the necessary skills to ensure that a software product functions from “end-to-end”.
