Root Cause Analysis (RCA) in the context of production release in software testing is a critical process. It involves identifying and solving the core issues that led to problems during the release process. This could include bugs that were missed during testing, issues that arise only in the production environment, or problems related to the […]
In the world of software testing, quality analyst like me plays a pivotal role in ensuring that applications meet high standards of functionality, performance, and security. One essential testing technique that quality analysts employ to achieve this negative testing. Negative testing, also known as error path testing or invalid input testing, is a critical approach […]
Based on my experience test data is a critical component of successful testing. It plays a pivotal role in ensuring that my testing efforts are comprehensive, accurate, and effective. Some of the realistic scenarios test data allows me to simulate the real-world scenarios and conditions that users might encounter when using the application. Realistic data […]
Think about a recent project where a small code change caused unexpected problem in a once smooth-running part of the software. It was like a surprise twist that showed how even tiny code changes can create big issues. This made me realize that we need a way to catch these surprises before they affect the […]
As a software tester in the Quality Assurance (QA) field, we play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and reliability of software products. One essential aspect of our job is managing bugs or defects that may be present in the software. In this post, we’ll dive into the Bug Lifecycle, the various statuses a […]
Levels of testing refer to different stages where testing is conducted during the software development lifecycle. These stages are typical. In Integration testing, we have two approaches, Bigbang approach Incremental approach Sandwich approach Bigbang approach: The Bigbang integration testing approach is where all the modules or components of an application are integrated simultaneously, after which […]
Software testing life cycle refers to all the activities performed during testing of a software product. In other words, we can say, it is a sequence of different activity, which is only performed by the testing team to ensure the product quality. STLC is a subpart of SDLC. There are six phases involved: 1.Requirement Analysis: […]
Unified modeling language (UML) is a standardized modeling language enabling developers to specify, visualize, construct and document artifacts of a software system. Thus, UML makes these artifacts scalable, secure and robust in execution. UML is an important aspect involved in object oriented software development. It uses graphic notation to create visual models of software systems. […]
Change request: Change request is a formal proposal for an alteration to some product or system. In project management, change request often arises when the clients wants an addition or alteration to the agreed upon deliverable for the project. Such a change may involve an additional feature or customization or an extension of service, among […]
