SOFTWARE TESTING TERMS – I

1. Acceptance Testing: Formal testing conducted to determine whether or not a system satisfies its acceptance criteria and to enable the customer to determine whether or not to accept the system. It is usually performed by the customer.

2. Accessibility Testing: Type of testing which determines the usability of a product to the people having disabilities (deaf, blind, mentally disabled etc). The evaluation process is conducted by persons having disabilities.

3. Active Testing: Type of testing consisting in introducing test data and analyzing the execution results. It is usually conducted by the testing teams.

4. Agile Testing: Software testing practice that follows the principles of the agile manifesto, emphasizing testing from the perspective of customers who will utilize the system. It is usually performed by the QA teams.

5. Age Testing: Type of testing which evaluates a system’s ability to perform in the future. The evaluation process is conducted by testing teams.

6. Ad-hoc Testing: Testing performed without planning and documentation – the tester tries to ‘break’ the system by randomly trying the system’s functionality. It is performed by the testing teams.

7. Alpha Testing: Type of testing a software product or system conducted at the developer’s site. Usually it is performed by the end user.

8. Assertion Testing: Type of testing consisting in verifying if the conditions confirm the product requirements. It is performed by the testing teams.

9. API Testing: Testing technique similar to unit testing in that it targets the code level. API Testing differs from unit testing in that it is typically a QA task and not a developer task.

10. All-pairs Testing: Combinatorial testing method that tests all possible discrete combinations of input parameters. It is performed by the testing teams.

11. Automated Testing: Testing technique that uses automation testing tools to control the environment set-up, test execution and results reporting. It is performed by a computer and is used
inside the testing teams.

12. Basis Path Testing: A testing mechanism which derives a logical complexity measure of a procedural design and use this as a guide for defining a basic set of execution paths. It is used by testing teams when defining test cases.

13. Backward Compatibility Testing: Testing method which verifies the behavior of the developed software with older versions of the test environment. It is performed by testing teams.

14. Beta Testing: Final testing before releasing application for commercial purpose. It is typically done by end-users or others.

15. Benchmark Testing: Testing technique that uses representative sets of programs and data designed to evaluate the performance of computer hardware and software in a given configuration. It is performed by testing teams.

16. Big Bang Integration Testing: Testing technique which integrates individual program modules only when everything is ready. It is performed by the testing teams.

17. Binary Portability Testing: Technique that tests an executable application for portability across system platforms and environments, usually for conformation to an ABI specification. It is performed by the testing teams.

18. Boundary Value Testing: Software testing technique in which tests are designed to include representatives of boundary values. It is performed by the QA testing teams.

19. Bottom Up Integration Testing: In bottom up integration testing, module at the lowest level are developed first and other modules which go towards the ‘main’ program are integrated and tested one at a time. It is usually performed by the testing teams.

20. Branch Testing: Testing technique in which all branches in the program source code are tested at least once. This is done by the developer.
