Software testing techniques are methods used to design and execute tests to evaluate software applications. The following are common testing techniques:
Manual testing - Involves manual inspection and testing of the software by a human tester.
Functional testing - Tests the functional requirements of the software to ensure they are met.
Non-functional testing - Tests non-functional requirements such as performance, security, and usability.
Unit testing - Tests individual units or components of the software to ensure they are functioning as intended.
Integration testing - Tests the integration of different components of the software to ensure they work together as a system.
System testing - Tests the complete software system to ensure it meets the specified requirements.
Acceptance testing - Tests the software to ensure it meets the customer's or end-user's expectations.
Regression testing - Tests the software after changes or modifications have been made to ensure the changes have not introduced new defects.
Performance testing - Tests the software to determine its performance characteristics such as speed, scalability, and stability.
Security testing - Tests the software to identify vulnerabilities and ensure it meets security requirements.
Exploratory testing - A type of testing where the tester actively explores the software to find defects, without following a specific test plan.
Boundary value testing - Tests the software at the boundaries of input values to identify any defects.
Usability testing - Tests the software to evaluate its user-friendliness and ease of use.
User acceptance testing (UAT) - Tests the software to determine if it meets the end-user's needs and expectations.
