Empower Your Software Quality

Test TypeDefinition

Unit TestingFocuses on testing individual units or components of the software to ensure they function correctly in isolation.

Integration TestingVerifies that different modules or services of the software work together as expected when integrated.

System TestingTests the complete system as a whole to verify that it meets the specified requirements and functions as intended.

Acceptance TestingEnsures the software meets the business requirements and is ready for release. It’s typically done by the customer or end-users.

Functional TestingFocuses on verifying that the software functions as expected, based on the functional requirements.

Non-Functional TestingTests the non-functional aspects such as performance, security, usability, and scalability of the software.

Regression TestingEnsures that new code changes have not negatively impacted the existing functionality of the software.

Smoke TestingA preliminary test to check if the basic functions of the software work correctly, often referred to as a "sanity check."

Sanity TestingA subset of regression testing to verify specific functionality after changes or fixes, ensuring the problem has been resolved.

Performance TestingAssesses the speed, responsiveness, and stability of the software under various conditions, such as load, stress, and scalability.

Load TestingTests how the software behaves under expected user load to identify performance bottlenecks.

Stress TestingEvaluates the software's stability and behavior under extreme conditions, typically beyond normal operational capacity.

Usability TestingEvaluates how user-friendly and intuitive the software is by observing real users' interactions with it.

Security TestingIdentifies vulnerabilities and ensures the software is protected against security threats and attacks, such as unauthorized access.

Compatibility TestingVerifies that the software functions correctly across different environments, including various operating systems, browsers, or devices.

Alpha TestingThe initial phase of testing, typically performed by the development team, to identify bugs and issues before beta testing.

Beta TestingConducted by a select group of external users to identify potential issues before the software is released to the public.

Black Box TestingFocuses on testing the software’s functionality without knowledge of its internal workings or code.

White Box TestingInvolves testing the software's internal structures or code to ensure proper operation and code quality.

Ad-hoc TestingInformal testing without any predefined test plan or structure, often conducted to uncover unexpected bugs or issues.

Exploratory TestingThe tester explores the software to learn about it and simultaneously designs and executes tests based on their findings.
