Software Testing

Software Testing

Testing in software industry is often undermined saying that if you do the code properly there would not be the need of testing. In reality, testing is as important in this industry as it is important for any other industry.

The myth that testing is redundant in for software is already busted if we glance over the current state of the testing in software industry. It has had many major leaps and jumps not only in terms of various innovative testing approaches but also with the availability of new software testing products. Testing is almost inevitable for any software to become competitive with good quality in this cut throat competition.

To understand the phenomena, there are 5 important questions that have to be answered for any software product.

Does software product we create do what it supposed to do?

Software testing ensures the working of newly implemented functionality work as intended. With this it makes sure that the new functionality does not break already existing functionality. This is being done irrespective of development methodology used.


Is a software system works as good as with one user and multiple users?

A software vendor would like to make sure that it is always up and running irrespective of how many users are using it with whatever heavy transactions.


Does a software system is immune of whatever silly (illogical) things a user does?

Most often, the boundary cases are ignored with the thinking that user will never come across the scenario. Testing like exploratory testing and ad-hoc testing outside of specs can discover many weird results that a software system is not intended to produce.


Does a software system, works equally well on intended devices, operating systems, browsers and versions?

In current days where users are becoming more tech savvy, and technologies are changing dimensions, compatibility to different devices, browsers, operating systems is a must to reach the vast array of users. Compatibility testing with various permutations and combinations helps ensuring seamless behavior of an application.


Are users happy and are you proud owner of something you have developed?

Even a small user experience issue may easily drag a user away from your site. A severe bug can affect mass of users. This is the last thing a software system wants.
