An acceptance test returns either as pass or fail, with a fail suggesting that there is a flaw present and the software should not go into production.
US
US
Automated testing is often done with automation tools to execute test case suites.
US
US
Black box testing can be applied virtually to every level of software testing: unit, integration, system and acceptance.
US
US
A build, when tested and certified by the software testing team, is provided to the customers as “release”.
US
US
Functional testing is a kind of black box testing that is performed to confirm that the functionality of an application or system is behaving as expected.
US
US
Integration testing is a level of software testing where individual units are combined and tested as a group.
US
US
A person with good attention to detail, who acts as an end user, should do manual testing to ensure the application's features behave correctly.
US
US
Code must undergo extensive development and testing before it is validated as production ready.
US
US
Production error monitoring helps developers to monitor and fix crashes and other issues in real time, whenever they occur in the live version.
US
US
QA testers are primarily responsible for checking new software products, such as those for gaming systems, mobile or software applications, for defects, issues or bugs.
US
US
Regression testing should be done before every release for all areas where changes have been made in the code.
US
US
The release is the official launch of a version or application for the customers.
US
US
The executed smoke tests qualified the build for further formal testing.
US
US
A staging environment is a part of a workflow in most development projects and the deployment process.
US
US
The purpose of a system test is to evaluate the system's compliance with the specified requirements.
US
US
The process of developing test cases can also find problems in the requirements or design of an application.
US
US
A unit is the smallest testable part of any software. It usually has one or a few inputs and usually a single output.
US
US
UX testing is the process of testing different aspects of user experiences to determine the best way for software and its elements to interact with its audience.
US
US
UI testing is the process of testing a product's graphical user interface to ensure it meets its pre-defined specifications.
US
US
White box testing is a method of software testing that tests internal structures or workings of an application, as opposed to its functionality.
