So now I would like to move slowly to software testing when we come to software testing the first question comes to our mind is why? Why the developers cannot develop bug free software so that the extra burden of testing will not come on project’s budget.
The first thing would say that Testing is much more than just debugging in my career of last 4 year I have never seen a bug free software in-fact some times we caught major bugs which could effect badly to the business after going into production or live so basically software testing protects software companies form any of such major loss.
Software testing is any activity aimed at evaluating an attribute or capability of a program or system and determining that it meets its required results.Although crucial to software quality and widely deployed by programmers and testers, software testing still remains an art, due to limited understanding of the principles of software. The difficulty in software testing stems from the complexity of software: we can not completely test a program with moderate complexity. The purpose of testing can be quality assurance, verification and validation, or reliability estimation. Testing can be used as a generic metric as well. Correctness testing and reliability testing are two major areas of testing.
Software testing is a trade-off between budget, time and quality.
