Compatibility testing examines the compatibility of the application and the product with different computing environments. It is a part of non-functional testing. It tests the usability, reliability, and performance of the application and the product. The ISO 25010 standard defines it as a characteristic or extent to which a software system can exchange information withRead more
The phase when individual software modules are logically combined and tested as a group is called integration testing. The compliance of a component or a system with the specified functional requirement is evaluated in integration testing. It is undertaken after unit testing but before system testing. For its inputs, integration testing takes unit-tested modules, forms largerRead more
Functional testing is a form of testing where the software system is tested against its functional requirements. The main aim here is to check the functionality of a component or an entire software system as well as its compliance with specified business requirements. In functional testing, the mainline functions, accessibility, usability, and error conditions areRead more
Ad hoc testing is randomly conducted unstructured software testing that detects possible defects at an early stage. It is a completely unplanned activity that neither follows documentation nor any test design (techniques) to create test cases. The tests are run only once unless a defect is found. Ad hoc testing is done with the aim ofRead more
