What Is Checklist-Based Testing?

The common type of software testing is to begin running the software product and make monitoring, with the expectancies that it will be not difficult to differentiate between expected and unexpected conduction.

 

It happens so that software systems are tested in an equal way to see if some specific defects can be observed or if operational condition and input can be handled…

The Necessity of Web Application Testing

It is a well-known fact that usability is one of the fundamental interests for users-beginners. But reliability is increasingly become a fundamental interest for ingenious users.

 

Consequently, it is necessary to pay the main attention to web source failures and try to assure reliability of such web-based applications from a user’s side, in other words – to conduct web application…

Finite-State Machines for Web Testing

Each web-based application or function comprises of different elements and phases visible to the web users.

 

Consequently, state transition based finite-state machines models are proper for this type of applications.

 

 

There are some basic components of finite-state machines:

 

  • Every web page corresponds to a slate in finite-state machines. Any page can be the initial…

Testing of Web-Based Applications

Web applications possess different features that have an influence to the choices of proper methods for web testing.

 

One of the basic dissimilarities is the document and data focus for the web as compared to the computing focus for the majority of traditional software. Although some computing capability has evolved in newer web applications, document and data search and…

Limitations and Difficulties of the Checklists

The significant feature of checklists is that they are normally not very specific, especially those high-level ones. For instance, a high-level functional checklist normally includes the main functions to be conducted by software, but the list points are barely detailed enough for software testers to begin a…

Designing an Appropriate Performance Test Environment. Part II

There are a lot of projects where all performance testing are conducted on the live environment. On the other hand, we can say that this is rather uncommon and adds its own set of additional considerations such as:

 

  • the influence on real application users when a test is performed
  • the effect of other application traffic
