A Complete Overview of End-to-End QA Software Testing Process Flow:

Note – We are re-publishing this useful post with updated content.

The job of a software testing professional is not an easy one. It is filled with challenges, which are equally demanding as well. Testers should be alert and enthusiastic in each and every phase of the application lifecycle.

Though there are challenges, there are several tremendous opportunities as well to learn and explore the various aspects of testing methodologies, processes, and of course the software in detail.

The role of a test engineer begins very early. And right from the conceptualization of the project, testers are involved in discussions with the product owner, project manager, and various stakeholders.

Requirements to Release

Requirements to Release

This tutorial on “Software Testing Process flow” gives you a complete overview of the various phases of STLC along with the challenges involved and the best practices to overcome those challenges in an easily understandable manner.

Requirements to Release: A Complete Overview

Right from Requirement to Release, each phase is explained clearly. Let’s take a look at them in detail.

#1) Requirement

A project cannot take off without having a clear requirement. This is the most crucial phase where ideas need to get written in a well understandable and formatted document. If you are part of a project where you are participating in the requirement gathering phase, then consider yourself lucky.

Wondering why? You are witnessing a project in the making from scratch. Though there has been pride in being since its inception, it comes with some responsibilities and challenges too.

Challenges

One cannot imagine all the requirements to gather in a single sitting. Be patient enough.

A lot of discussions will happen, some of which may be simply irrelevant to your project but even then they may contain some vital information for your project. Sometimes the speed of discussions may exceed your grasping capabilities or you would simply not pay attention to the product owner.

The picture below highlights the crucial steps involved in requirement gathering:

Every piece of information that is missing has a huge impact on the overall understanding and testing of the project. To overcome this, here are some best practices which should be followed during this phase.

Best Practices

Keep your mind open and pay attention to every word of the product owner.
Don’t just listen, clear your doubt however small it seems to be.
Always use notebooks for fast note keeping. You should use a laptop, only if you can really type at a fair speed.
Repeat the sentences and get them clarified from the PO which you think is what you understood.
Draw block diagrams, link text, etc. to make requirements clear at a later period of time.
If the teams are in different locations, try hard to make it a WebEx or similar recording. It will always help when you have a doubt after the discussions are over.

Though there is no separate wall as such for each and every phase, requirements do change even very late in development. So, the idea is to grab most of the requirements and document this properly.

Once it has been documented with all the necessary points, distribute and discuss with all the stakeholders so that any suggestions or changes are caught early and before moving on, everyone is on the same page.

#2) Test Strategy

Testers should come up with a test strategy that is not just sufficient to test the software better but should also instill confidence in every stakeholder regarding the quality of the product.

Challenges

The most crucial aspect of this phase is to create a strategy that when worked upon should deliver a software product that is error-free, sustainable, and accepted by its end users.

Test strategies are something you will not change every other day. In some cases, you also need to discuss your test strategies with the customers also. So this part should be dealt with high importance.

Best practices

Here are some of the best practises which, when followed, can provide you with great relief and result in smooth testing.
Please go through the required document once again. Highlight the import points with respect to the environment of the target software.
Make a list of environments where the software will be deployed.
Environments can be understood as a type of Operating Systems or Mobile Devices.
If Windows is the operating system, list down all the versions of the window where you will be testing your software. If the versions viz. Windows 7, Windows 10, or Windows Server(s) are still not defined in the requirement document, then it is high time when these should be discussed.
On a similar note, get the target browsers with the versions discussed and documented if the AUT is a web-based system.
Make a list of all the third-party software’s that the application will need (if required/supported). This may include Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Office, any add-ons, etc.

Here the idea behind is to keep every necessary and required platform, device, and software’s that our application will need to function before us so that a comprehensive strategy can be formulated.

The figure below will help you to understand the outline of the test strategy if you are working on an agile project:

#3) Test Planning

After the testers are armed with all the information regarding AUT, the planning phase is where the Strategy is implemented.

Like a test strategy, test planning is also a crucial phase.

Challenges

Since the success (or failure) of the AUT depends largely on how the tests were carried out, this phase becomes an important aspect of the entire test life cycle. Why? Because part of testing is defined in this phase.

In order to overcome some challenges, these best practices can really be helpful.

Best practices

Always keep in mind not to leave any stone unturned when it comes to testing your application.
It’s time to formulate a test strategy.
Create a matrix of the environment so that the software is tested on all platforms.
Like, as Windows 10+Internet Explorer 11+ Windows Office 2010+.
Like Android 4.2.2+ Chrome browser.
If your application works with multiple databases (if documented), keep the databases (MySQL, Oracle, SQLServer) in the test matrix in such a way that they are too integrated with some tests.
Configure the test machines accordingly and name them as SetUp1, SetUp2, etc.
SetUp1 will have Windows 7+ IE 10+ Office 2007+.
SetUp2 may have Windows 10+ IE Edge+ Office 2013+.
SetUp3 may have an Android phone with your .apk file installed.
Congratulations! Your test setup is ready and you have also included every possible combination of platforms that your application will work upon.

#4) Testing

Finally, your application build is out and you are ready to find bugs! Now it’s time to work on test planning and find as many bugs as possible. There will be some phases in between if you work in an agile environment, then simply follow those scrum methods.

The below diagram depicts the categorization of various testing types:

Challenges

Testing is a cumbersome process that itself is error-prone! One finds many challenges while testing an application. Given below are some best practices for rescue.

Best Practices

Cheer up! You are trying to find defects in the code. You need to pay attention to the overall working of the software.

It’s always advisable to look at the application with a fresh look, WITHOUT GOING THROUGH TEST CASES.
Follow the navigation path of your software (AUT).
Get yourself familiar with the AUT.
Now read the test cases (all) of any particular module (maybe of your choice).
Now go to the AUT and match the findings with those mentioned in the expected section of the test cases.
The idea behind this is to test every mentioned feature on every supported platform.
Make a note of every deviation however trivial it seems to be.
Write down the steps on how you can reach any deviation, take screenshots, capture error logs, server logs, and any other supporting documentation that can prove the existence of defects.
Don’t hesitate to ask. Even if you have the required document, there will be times when you will be in doubt.
Reach out to the developers (if they sit next to you or are reachable) in doubt before you reach out to the Product Owner. Understand the developer’s perspective on the working of the software. Understand them. If you feel this implementation is not according to the requirements, then inform the test manager.

#5) Before Release

Before we release any product to the market, the quality of the product has to be ensured. Software’s are developed once but they are being tested until they are replaced or removed.

Challenges

The software has to be tested rigorously for many of its parameters.

The parameters may not be limited to:

Functionality /Behavioral.
Performance.
Scalability.
Compatible with the said platforms.

The challenge is also to predict the success rate of an application, which depends on many iterations of the testing performed.

Best Practices

Make sure that all the features on all the platforms are tested.
Highlight areas that are not tested or ones that need more testing efforts.
Keep a matrix of all the test results before release. The test matrix will give an overall picture of the stability of the product. It will also help the management to take a call on the release dates.
Provide your input/suggestions to the team about your experience while testing the product.
Your input considering yourself as the end-user will benefit the software by and large.
Due to a time crunch or any other such situation, we either miss out on some testing or do not go deep into this. Don’t hesitate to tell me the testing status of your manager.
Present the health card to the stakeholders. Health cards should have a number of all the logged, open, closed, and intermittent defects with their severity and priority.
Draft a release document and share this with the team.
Work on the release document prepared.
Improve the areas that are being suggested by the management/team.

The picture below shows the software release lifecycle map:

#6) Release

Finally, the time comes when we have to deliver the product to its intended users. We as a team have worked hard to sign off the product and let the software help its users.

Challenges

Software test engineers are primarily responsible for the release of any software. This activity requires a process-oriented workflow. Here are some of the best practices that are involved in this phase.

Best Practices

Always remember that you are not working on the release document on the ACTUAL RELEASE date.
Always plan the release activity prior to the actual release date.
Standardize the document as per the company policies.
Your release document should try to establish positive expectations from the software.
Mention all the software and hardware requirements specific to their versions clearly in the document.
Include all open defects and their severity.
Do not hide major impacted areas due to open defects. Give them a place in the Release document.
Get the document reviewed and digitally signed [may differ as per company policy].
Be confident and ship the release document along with the software.

QA Testing Process On A Real Project: Waterfall Method

I got an interesting question from a reader, How is the testing carried out in a company i.e. in a practical environment?

Those who just pass out of college and start searching for jobs have this curiosity – how would the actual working environment be in a company?

Here I have focused on the actual working process of Software Testing in the companies.

Whenever we get any new project there is an initial project familiarity meeting. In this meeting, we basically discuss who the client is. what is the project duration and when is its delivery? Who is all involved in the project i.e Manager, Tech Leads, QA Leads, Developers, Testers, etc.?

From the SRS (software requirement specification) project plan is developed. The responsibility of testers is to create a software test plan from this SRS and project plan. Developers start coding from the design. The project work is divided into different modules and these project modules are distributed among the developers.

In the meantime, the responsibility of a tester is to create a test scenario and write test cases according to the assigned modules. We are trying to cover almost all the functional test cases from SRS. The data can be maintained manually in some excel test case templates or bug tracking tools.

When developers finish the individual modules, those modules are assigned to the testers. Smoke testing is performed on these modules and if they fail this test, modules are reassigned to the respective developers for a fix.

For passed modules, manual testing is carried out from the written test cases. If any bug is found that gets assigned to the module developer and gets logged into the bug tracking tool. For bug fixes, the tester does bug verification and regression testing of all related modules. If the bug passes verification it will be marked as verified and marked as closed. Otherwise, the above-mentioned bug cycle gets repeated. (I will cover the bug life cycle in another post)

Different tests are performed on individual modules and integration testing on module integration. These tests include Compatibility testing i.e testing applications on different hardware, OS versions, software platforms, different browsers, etc.

Load and stress testing is also carried out according to SRS. Finally, system testing is performed by creating a virtual client environment. Once all the test cases are executed, a test report is prepared and a decision is taken to release the product!

Steps In Requirements To Release

Given below are the details of each testing step that is carried out in each software quality and testing life cycle specified by IEEE and ISO standards.

#1) SRS Review: Review of software requirement specifications.

#2) Objectives are set for Major releases.

#3) Target Date planned for the Releases.

#4) Detailed Project Plan built. This includes the decision on Design Specifications.

#5) Develop Test Plan based on Design Specifications.

#6) Test Plan: This includes objectives, the methodology adopted while testing, features to be tested and not to be tested, risk criteria, testing schedule, multi-platform support, and the resource allocation for testing.

#7) Test Specifications: This document includes technical details (Software requirements) required prior to testing.

#8) Writing of Test Cases

Smoke (BVT) test cases
Sanity Test cases
Regression Test Cases
Negative Test Cases
Extended Test Cases

#9) Development: Modules are developed one by one.

#10) Installers Binding: Installers are built around the individual product.

#11) Build Procedure: A build includes Installers of the available products – on multiple platforms.

#12) Testing: Smoke Test (BVT): Basic application test to make a decision on further testing.

Testing of new features
Cross-browser and cross-platform testing
Stress testing and memory leakage testing.

#13) Test Summary Report

Bug reports and other reports are created

#14) Code freezing

No more new features have been added at this point.

#15) Testing: Build and Regression testing.

#16) Decision to release the product.

#17) Post-release scenario for further objectives.

This is a summary of the actual testing process in the company environment.

Conclusion

The job of a software tester is full of challenges, yet an enjoyable one. This is for someone who is equally passionate, motivated, and full of enthusiasm. Finding faults in someone is not always an easy job! This requires a lot of skill and a bull’s eye to the defects.

Besides all the qualities, a tester should be process-oriented as well. Like all the other industries, projects in IT are too worked in phases, where every phase has some well-defined goals. Every goal has a well-defined acceptance criterion. A test engineer has to carry many loads of software quality on his/her shoulders.

While working on any phase of software, testers should follow best practices and should align with the process involved in the respective phases. Following best practices and a well-formulated process not only helps to ease testers’ work, it also helps in assuring the quality of the software.

Are you a part of any of the above phases? Feel free to share your experiences below.

Respected Sir,
Recently in AUGUST i submitted my vith sem MCA project. I m doing MCA(Correspondance) from MD University Rohtak. I have no proficiency even on a single computer language,but i know about all the languages like c,c++,vb,vc++,java,javascript,html,c#,.net,windows programing,SQL,MS-office,RDBMS,Oracle ect. as per my syllabus in MCA taught by teachers.
So,thats why i also join and complete a WCT (webtek cerified tester) certificate course of software testing from the webtek school of software testing nariana,in which i learn about what is mannual and automated testing(IBM(rational tools) AND mercury (QTP),test director tools etc.) and how can they perform on the software by the tester.
kindly help me what i do to get a job in industry of software testing. and how can i improve myself and also tell me minimum language proficiency is required in testing field,because all the people says me no need of any language proficiency in any language for testing field.
i get totally frustrated and feel like a losser plz help me guide me plz

Hi Priya,

This is Suresh Working as a Test Engineer i have mentioned difference between smoke and sanity as below:

SMOKE Vs SANITY
I have gathered a few points about the difference between smoke and sanity testing from the responses of two software testing groups. I have added the points below.

However, my experience of executing the Smoke and Sanity testing has been the following:

Smoke Test:
When a build is received, a smoke test is run to ascertain if the build is stable and it can be considered for further testing.

Smoke testing can be done for testing the stability of any interim build.

Smoke testing can be executed for platform qualification tests.

Sanity testing:
Once a new build is obtained with minor revisions, instead of doing a through regression, a sanity is performed so as to ascertain the build has indeed rectified the issues and no further issue has been introduced by the fixes. Its generally a subset of regression testing and a group of test cases are executed that are related with the changes made to the app.

Generally, when multiple cycles of testing are executed, sanity testing may be done during the later cycles after through regression cycles.

Smoke Sanity

1 Smoke testing originated in the hardware testing practice of turning on a new piece of hardware for the first time and considering it a success if it does not catch fire and smoke. In software industry, smoke testing is a shallow and wide approach whereby all areas of the application without getting into too deep, is tested. A sanity test is a narrow regression test that focuses on one or a few areas of functionality. Sanity testing is usually narrow and deep.
2 A smoke test is scripted–either using a written set of tests or an automated test A sanity test is usually unscripted.
3 A Smoke test is designed to touch every part of the application in a cursory way. It’s is shallow and wide. A Sanity test is used to determine a small section of the application is still working after a minor change.
4 Smoke testing will be conducted to ensure whether the most crucial functions of a program work, but not bothering with finer details. (Such as build verification). Sanity testing is a cursory testing; it is performed whenever a cursory testing is sufficient to prove the application is functioning according to specifications. This level of testing is a subset of regression testing.
5 Smoke testing is normal health check up to a build of an application before taking it to testing in depth.
sanity testing is to verify whether requirements are met or not,
checking all features breadth-first.

Thanks,
Suresh Balakrishnan.

We have started collecting requirements from the client for Java based project, they are providing details verbally about flow and functionality. So, as being a part of requirement gathering team which documents should I prepare that can help to perform automation testing on it. I have total freedom to ask client about any documents I want. I have set of below questions.

How to start automation testing from scratch? what to documents to prepare for automation testing while doing requirement gathering. what tools and technology to be used to perform automation testing on Java project when ideally automation starts? How to build automation framework?

well there is lots of scope in testing field. For manual testing no coding is required but for automation u require some knowledge of coding like VB script for QTP specially.
you can follow Ron Patton and Gopalswamy for manual testing. Ron Patton is a good book for beginners, where as Gopalswamy is also a good book to go in depth of testing.
For automation u can go for Dr. K.V.K.K. Prasad.

Hi Nagaveni,
Test Design refers to understanding the sources of test cases, test coverage, how to develop and document test cases, and how to build and maintain test data. There are 2 primary methods by which tests can be designed and they are:

– BLACK BOX
– WHITE BOX

Whenever tester received a build from development team that time tester check it is testable or not. that is smoke testing.
And Sanity testing – Tester perform the sanity testing at the realse of the application . without going deeper check the all functionalities are working or not.

Hi Dhanu,

Before release you should ensure your product should meet the client’s requirements i.e. you should perform UAT. In this stage itself the product is almost freezed.

After you release the product to the customer, they will run with the product and surely they will come up with some minor changes (Change request), cosmetic changes. During their run if they found any difficulties or functionality missing or not works, then the product comes back for fixes (next version).

During that time we are the person to ensure that the changes/errors specified by the customer is already mentioned there in the URS. If it is there and we missed out means surely we are in bad stage(but by proper UAT we can eliminate this chance) else if it not mentioned in the URS, then it’ll be consider as new requirement and we’ve to proceed with our regular process.

On this stage, you should make complete check (regression/retest) to ensure the product’s quality. (this will eliminate the induced errors)

Are you clear? If i’m wrong do inform.

Hi Friends ,

All you guys have mis-conception that Smoke and Sanity Testing are same .

smoke and sanity testing are perform on different scenario .

SMOKE TESTING
===========

This is the first test done by Tester on the new build .
Testing done on the new build to make sure whether the build is strong enough to accept the major testing or not. this is called smoke testing . smoke testing will perform on the all major functionalities of the application or product .we can say smoke testing is wide but shallow testing .

Example ::

As you may can see , the application or product may getting crashed for every particular span of time.
when a application is getting crashed for every 3 minutes , tester cant do the major testing .this is why Smoke testing is to be performed.

Sanity Testing
=========

Sanity Testing is a subset of regression testing. Test the newly added or updated/enhancement functionalities alone with the deep attention on it to make sure that those functionalities are working correct as per the spec. The sanity testing is performed when time is less and tester feel that those functionalities wont affect the existing functionalities as per spec.

Sanity Testing is perform on the particular functionalities and deep attention.

Example ::

A new functionalities added with the existing which is not depends on the existing one and also there is insufficient time to test the whole functionalities as well . So in this scenario , testing team will decide to do the Sanity Testing .

  Couple of items take precedence: (1) If there is an expected change in the design and code, the update the test cases, update the regression suite of test cases; and wait for re-execution; (2) Retest the code for the bug fixes and run the regression suite.
  Once all tests are done, it is advisable to run the full regression suite, before release

100B Account Id verification Verify that the user is able to enter the account number in the Account ID field The account ID is verified successfully

Test Strategy contains about overall project prespective.

Strategy tells all testing like functional, automation business overview of the project, testing tools, past history etc. — this is the difference between test plan & strategy.

Hi Dhanu,

Reg: Performance testing – manually.

If your requirement is to test with small loads then you can do it with 25 or 50 manual testers by executing the planned scenario. So that you people can trace the response time, logs, throughput, and utilization of bandwidth.

In general it is not possible to check the performance in manual.

Not exactly. But once we are near to deliver the product, we use to show a demo (may be in our office or thro’ webex). On that time the customers may express their feel, suggestion and comments. Based on that we’ll work with.

In some case people from customer side will come to our end and work with our testing team. But this is not very frequent.

Dear Daisy (#181),
For a fresher, To the best of my knowledge, ISTQB is not at all required. Instead what is what of testing is also not required. Because right from the beginning freshers will keep learning what is what and how the flow of testing and all.

Its up to your interest to go ahead and do the istqb.
Instead I suggest you to hunt a job first and then go for any certification at later point of time.

Because we have to make efficient use of the fresher period/time.

Hi Mayasen,

Can you please tell me what are the Non-functional testing types a complete Manual tester Can do? There are some lists which we can say common like :-
1. Performance Testing in terms of Load, Stress & Volume
2. Compatibility & Migration Testing
3. Security Testing
4. Installation Testing etc..
But as a Manual Tester if you say this, they will ask how do you do Performance testing as a Manually? So how do you consider this question ?

Clearly sanity and smoke are different entities. Description with real life example is given below:

1. Smoke Test: This will be done after receiving the build. Just like browsing the application
Sanity Test: This will be done mostly after Retest (Retest will be done after fixing the bug).
2. Difference between Smoke Testing and Sanity Testing
Take an example:
Consider a hollow pipe and you have to check whether it is good for circulation process or can it be used for the supply process:
Smoke Testing:
First we have to check whether the pipe allows to flow from end to other end. Pass the smoke to the pipe and check whether the smoke will come out of other end. If the smoke comes out, the pipe can be used as Testable pipe. (Build is testable for further testing).
Sanity Testing:
Now allow water (liquid) to flow in the pipe, and check whether there is any leakage in the pipe. If the water comes out in between the pipe, so detect the leakage and assigned to developer for fixing it. So Smoke Test should be applied first, and then comes the Sanity Testing.

@ Priya – Ok Priya I will suggest some related topic to your M.B.A by discussing with my MBA systems friends.

@ Padmini – Smoke testing is generally performed on any new build to test whether that build is stable to do further testing.
Sanity Testing is a part of regression testing which is performed on already developed and tested build which is again for testing for some minor changes. Sanity testing performed to check if no more issues are introduced in previous stable build. Here some core tests are executed like UI functionality, DB connection etc..
Hope this will answer your question.

Hi friends,

TestCase:

test case in software engineering is a set of conditions or variables under which a tester will determine if a
requirement or use case upon an application is partially or fully satisfied.
It may take many test cases to determine that a requirement is fully satisfied..

Or

Test case is a detailed procedure that fully tests a feature or an aspect of a feature.
Whereas the test plan describes what to test, a test case describes how to perform a particular test. You need to develop a test case for each test listed in the test plan.

Test case include:

purpose of the test.
•

Special hardware requirements, such as a modem.
•

Special software requirements, such as a tool.
•

Specific setup or configuration requirements.
•

A description of how to perform the test.
•

The expected results or success criteria for the test.

@ Priya- I will definitely guide. Is it part of your curriculum? So that project selection decision will depend on your M.B.A assignments. Let me know your exact requirement.

@Jhenz- Smoke testing is nothing but verify most crucial functionality is working not bothering about the detailed in-depth one. This word came from electronics i.e to check the appliances by switching on the power. Smoke testing is generally performed to check whether further testing can be carried out or not. Much like Sanity Testing!

Hi Dhanu,

You are right. Sorry i missed a sentence that UAT kind of test.

On your system testing (beta testing), you should perform the test similar to UAT.

My company is working with lot of domain and so we’ve number of peoples and teams. So that, before delivering every product we select people from different team (other than testers) and form them in to a group to perform testing.

We just handed over our product to their desk, they’ll play with the system. We (testing people) just watch and observe them. During that observation we can get some best suggestions, usability changes, even sometime it make us to change so functionality too.

I didn’t say this is the best way or this is the only way. But as per my observation this is one of the good way of doing UAT at our end.

Am i right..?

@Neha,

Sanity: Over all testing done to check the major(main) functionality is working fine to start system testing.
this will be done by Quality team (testing) to accept the build to start system testing.

Regression: test to ensure that the fixed bugs are not effecting any other/exsisting functionality.

@ Sunil.

Prodcut testing:
for example take Microsoft: microsoft never depends on clinets, they think a new concept, they analyse and collect requirements from the market, they develop there own product, they test it , and finally they release it by there own.

Project testing:
(most of the companies are project based companies)
for ex: a bank need a software for there dialy use.
the Bank itself can’t develop a software application right.
so they approch a Software compnay they will tell there requirements (called Business requirement).

then the S/w comp will prepare a doc. called SRS (s/w requirement specification)

then they develop the applicaiton and deliver it to client.

in simple way:
Prodcut based compnay is Mircrosoft (so many like this)
Project based compnay (most of the indian companies like satyam..etc)

the explanation given by zakir & Mythee are correct.

Dear Mr. Govardhan Reddy,

I agree risk is there in all other non IT sectors also but that risk level is more in IT industry. As I said earlier am not demodulating anyone, I’m just sharing the real scenarios that is happening in IT sector.

Testing is also not an easy job when compared to development. Testing is more challenging one. The testers are here to correct the developers if they are wrong and to improve the product quality.

One more thing I would like to highlight is that managing professional work not like how you manage a girl friend. Phone calls, quarrels, love, etc…Work is entirely different.

Anyhow Mr. Reddy had highlighted few more points. So people can take decisions based on their own mindset.

All the very best and welcome to IT

Quality team i.e. the Testing team will be certify the product for delivery. I think i’m right.

Practically in most cases, once the testing team done with test; they’ll report to corresponding PM. So that he/she’ll make a walk on the product. After that only the product will move for delivery.

Gents!
According to my experience QC team will test and give the reports to the PM about the software stability. After that the PM will assess the report and if he is OK with that, he will inform the release progress to QA team or concerned release and delivery people.

Then QA team will perform the release audit before the product/software is released. In release audit the QA team will randomly pick some test cases and execute in front of the concerned PM/PL. If the test cases are passed and the QA team satisfies with the software stability based on the reports, the concerned QA Manager will approve the release.

This is what most of the ISO/CMMI companies are following as a formal release procedure. Informally some other options may be there but during the External audits for CMMI/ISO certifications, the external auditors will look for the release audit records.
Thanks!

Hi friend. Both Smoke and Sanity is done to ensure the stability of the build.

Smoke testing is done to check whether the build is done properly and Sanity testing is done to check whether the build is Functioning properly. Not clear right, let me put up with an example,

Take for example a simple login page which has ‘username’ and ‘password’ input box and ‘ok’ and ‘cancel’ butons. Now here, Smoke testing is done like this, we simply check whether we cud able to hit the username and password inputboxes, OK and Cancel buttons and whether it is enabled.

Sanity testing is we give some values for the usename, password and perform one functional cycle to test the application. Hope this is clear.

To ur second question check with Bugzilla

cheers

Dear Mr.Suresh (#175),
I totally agree with you.
But wherever you step (go), There will be risk in one way or the other way. Very simple.

Please don’t give direct suggestions. hahaha…
Because people may get scared reading your comment. But you may recommend.

But I’m sure, There is no risk free industry. Whether IT or NON – IT.

haha…
what say?

May be development is a challenging task (I mean very big task to handle and may be day to day challenge).

BUT AS FOR MINE (TESTING) IS CONCERNED,
1. I LOVE THIS JOB.
2. I LIKE TO TEST.
3. I ADMIT MISTAKES AND LEARN FROM THEM.
4. THIS JOB UPDATING MY SKILLS WITH/WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE IN ONE WAY OR THE OTHER WAY.

Dear All,
You are most welcome to IT Industry.
Please don’t get scared.
You may listen to Mr.Suresh or Mr.Govardhan Reddy M (Me).
But please don’t try to take final decision, just based on suresh or me.

I ALWAYS RECOMMEND FRESHERS/EXPERIENCE ENGINEERS TO COME AND ROCK IN TESTING FIELD.

My wishes for your future endeavours.

Just take a simple example.
Having (handling) a girl friend.
phone calls, sms, gifts, quarrels, love, arguements, compromises, fun, entertainment, walk, talk, laugh, shop, bla bla bla…etc.

hahaha…
I’m not blaming any one.

I just want to convey you is that, “risk will be there in all the fields”. But its we, whether we react (negative) or respond (positive) to the situation.

MOST WELCOME YOU ALL.

@Poornima

How to write testcases for regression testing?

Usually we don’t write any test cases while performing regression testing but we just execute all the test cases.
Regression testing is done on cases like 1)Any changes in the module, 2)change in requirement, 3)Changes in code after a bug is found and resolved 4)Patchup in the build. It is done to ensure changes do not affect the application in any way

@ Swetha

You can go ahead with the help option available in the QTP application. Trust me I’ve learnt QTP by this option only.

Guys,
India is having various job opportunities. Don’t focus your mind into only software. Here in this IT industry you will get only Money but no peace of mind and job satisfaction.

Try to explore the various opportunities available. I’m not trying to demodulate any one. Hope the real IT colleagues will agree with my opinion. The perfect example is most of the IT professional are trying to change their profession into non IT sectors.

This is my personal opinion think twice before entering in to IT sector and discuss with the real IT people who is having above 7+ years experience in IT. Then you will come to know what are the problems that we are facing in this industry.

Again if you thought you can manage all the scenarios in IT, you are most welcome ?

Hi gayathri,

we use to support the UAT, normally in UAT the tester will be the user who use the application. so we will get the biz scenario for writing the testcase and will provide them the testcase for any further clarifications.

Hi Divya,

This is Suresh Balakrishnan working as a Senior Test Engineer. i’ve mentioned answer as below:

Regression Testing:

When a new functionality is added to the software, we need to make sure that the added new functionality does not break the other parts of the application. Or when defects (bugs) are fixed, we need to make sure that the bug fix has not broken the other parts of the application. To test this, we perform a repetitive test, which is called regression test.

Re-Testing:

Verify the particular bug is fixed properly or not instead of test the entire application.

Hi shridevi ,

Integration testing :- It is a test to check whether all the modules are combined together or not and working successfully as specified in the requirement document. (Just for your information: Each developer works on different modules. When they finish their code, the configuration management team puts them together and prepares a build. We, as testers, need to make sure that these modules, which are now combined, work as per requirement document)

System testing :- When testers complete testing (The testers test the application in the test environments, meaning they test with the test data only, NOT with the real data), the application (software) has to be tested in the real environment. What it means is, since the testers test it in the test environment with the test data, we have to make sure that the application works well in the real environment with the real data. In test environment, some of the things cannot be simulated or tested. Al though the test environment is very similar to the production (real) environment, we need to make sure that we get a smooth delivery in the real system as well (As servers are different and database is different, things may not work as expected when the application is moved from test environment to production environment)

Functional testing :- It is a test to check whether each and every function of that application is working as per the requirement (remember this work “as per requirement document”-you must say this in the interview). It is a major test where 80% of the tests are done. In this test, the Test Cases are executed (or run).

System testing is Black-box type of testing that is based on overall requirements specifications. It covers all combined parts of the system.

Integration testing is the testing of combined parts of an application to determine if they function together corretly.

functionality testing checks whether the application works according to clients requiremnet or not. its a part of system testing

From URS (user requirement spec.), SRS/BRS will be prepared my the Project management peoples.

Study the BRS/SRS; based on that prepare Test plan/scenario

Then prepare Test case and execute test case

Report and track the bug

Retest and regression test based on requirement

Documentation (Test result, bug report, bug life etc..)

*Note:
# Try to document at each and every stage
# Keep versioning in documents (possible with dates)

Above some one said there is no difference between Smoke and Sanity , but as per my understanding Smoke is to check whether the build we get is testable or not , Like Checking the major functionalities in application , Sanity is something a subset of regression testing and it is performed when we do not have enough time for doing complete testing. Sanity testing is the surface level testing where tester verifies that all the menus, functions, commands available in the product or project are working fine or not.

Difference between Project and Product software testing

Ans:-

Project is based on client requirements.
Product is based on market requirements.

The difference between project and product in software testing is the same type of difference which exists in any other project and product.
Project and product testing is done at different times; however, the intent of testing is the same. A project has its purpose to create a product. A product is the result of project. In reality a project is basically a plan for the design, architecture and development of software. Testing is part of a project and for those projects aimed at the creation of good software testing begins when the project begins and continues through the duration of the project. Projects are determined by the need or needs of others to possess a product, which will maximize the uses, for which it is intended.
Project managers and teams come together to design, and develop software. They ask questions and determine the answer through the use of applications, computer
Language, codes, etc. The act of designing, building and developing software is called a project. The end result of the project is the product, in this case software. The quality of the software continues to be tested, even after it is on the market and being used by those for whom it was intended.

The purpose of software testing beginning with the initiation of a project to build software is to produce a good product, which is the goal of a project. Testing begins and ends with good software, software that keeps it’s promise over a long duration. In users terms good software works and makes the users work easier. Good projects lead to good products and consistent testing is the key to good products.

For example, Product based companies like Telecommunication build their own product in tact with the market requirement and release for the sales targeting the customers. They in fact carry out a project to get the product done in accordance to quality and Industry standard and obviously the resultant is the product. This goes with Product testing. And when it comes to Project testing, companies like TCS, WIPRO etc who basically develop and do testing for their clients who may also be the Telecommunication companies as I mentioned above and get the requirements on what needs to be build and what needs to be tested and carry out operation to meet out the result. The resultant is the software which in turn is called a Product. This goes with the Project testing.

Hope this is clear

Cheers

2. Creation of Test Plan based on the Project Plan & SRS
3. Creation of Test Cases
4. Execution of Test Cases

1. Testing is method to verify and validate that the system or application under test performs as per the requirements.
Manual Testing is the means by which the System is tested manually without the use of any Automation Tools.
The system can be tested for its Functionality and its Performance.

As per the SDLC the Testing starts after the Development. The simple Life cycle of Software is
Requirement –> Design –> Coding / Development –> Testing –> Implementation –> Maintenance.

The Testing activity will begin once after the Requirement is done.
The Testing starts of with the analysis of the Test requirement.
Once the analysis is done, the estimation and schedule is done for the duration of testing activity.
Then the Requirements are splitted into smaller parts as Test cases, which will reviewed by the senior members and business analysts.
The Test case is a template having the Description, The testing action, Expected result and the Actual Result column. Once the application is ready for testing the test cases are executed against the application and the actual results are recorded.
If the actual result varies from the expected one the test cases fail and the defects are logged. And after the defects are accepted it will fixed and then retested, if the defect is validated is closed.
This activity is carried till the defects are closed.
This is the approach that is carried out in manual testing. I hope you get some knowledge regarding manual testing.

Most of the companies using manual testing bcoz.,for automated testing License price is high.

when compare to manual testing money will be spend only for tester,but if they do automated testing means they have to buy the software and also they have to search for the testers who know the particular software.

I hope the details given above are true,if not dont mistake me.bye guys.
